Teacher. Interpreter. Singer.
Thai Culinarian. Storyteller.
Helping people communicate, learn, create, and reconnect with who they are.

To connect people—to comfort, to understanding, to beauty, and to one another.

About Pradichaya
I'm Pradichaya Poonyarit.
Over the years, I've been known as many things:
teacher, interpreter, opera singer, Thai culinarian, storyteller, mentor, and entrepreneur.
At first glance, those roles may seem unrelated.
But they are all expressions of the same purpose.
I use my voice to help people connect.
As an interpreter, I help people communicate across languages.
As a teacher, I help people move from confusion to understanding.
As a singer, I connect people to emotion, beauty, and meaning.
As a Thai culinarian and storyteller, I share culture, memories, and traditions that might otherwise be lost.
Different paths, but one same mission: to bring people closer to understanding themselves, each other, and the world around them.
Welcome to my world.

A private learning space where I teach how Thai people actually cook —
through demos, technique, flavor balancing, and thoughtful guidance.
COOK LIKE A THAI
Academy
From beginners and up.
Where Thai food meets truth, learn to cook the way it’s taught in real Thai households—no fusion, no fluff, just real skills passed down with care.
Thai Food
Like A BOSS
Ideal for Thai food connoisseurs who refuse the "less-than true" Thai food.
Home of the viral Puddprikking course. Stir-fry mastery, decoded. This is a Thai technique with no shortcuts, taught the way it's been done for at least 150 years (using today's tools, of course!)

Stories, dishes, and Thai cooking wisdom from my mother’s kitchen —
shared inside a private course space.

The School of Math YES!
I’m a longtime math teacher with a calm voice, sharp eyes, and a soft spot for students who think they’re “just bad at math.”
I help them catch up, build confidence, and move forward—one concept at a time.

Meet Pradichaya
Cook Like A Thai,
From Gaprow To Keemao,
Puddprikking,
Etc.
I’m a seasoned opera singer, educator, vlogger, podcaster, and author with a brain like a giant bowl of spaghetti—tangled, wild, and packed with big dreams. Somewhere in the sauce, each tiny meatball holds a passion I’ve chased for years. After two decades of being everywhere and nowhere, I’ve finally found clarity. And believe it or not, you’re a big part of why I’m finally doing this.
Stay Connected
I wear many hats—teacher, interpreter, singer, cook, storyteller, and lifelong learner.
If you'd like occasional updates, stories, recipes, and project announcements, I'd love to stay in touch.
