I work with a private tutor, and attend both AUA and structured Thai language classes in Bangkok. The AUA program is a big investment in time and money but works for some people. If you already have a decent background in the language it might be the best program. But you don't get the grammar and language structure, and the typical student is there a very long time before they are introduced to reading and writing.

As always, it depends on your language goals and available time.

Group classes seem to run about 100 baht an hour, with private lessons in the 250-500 baht range. Lots of schools near the BTS lines, especially Asoke and Silom.
