Using Everyday Thai, Drops, and Simply Thai, repeating words and phrases over and over, people can actually understand me now. Try Drops out - Simply Thai is another one but not as good.
the best way to learn Thai is with a teacher one to one as he/she can correct your pronounciation. Correct pronounciation and correct use of tones is more important for Thai language than any western language. Know many foreigners, who know many words in Thai, but they are not understood by locals at all as their pronounciation sucks.
There are a few companies which offer online sessions with teachers during quarantine...
