In this quasi-experimental research, a time-series design that used three times in each pre-test and post-test were applied to collect data from twelve students from two different schools in Thailand. The data collected were analyzed descriptively. The findings of the study showed that all respondents had improvements in their English communication ability with around 48% of improvements. The VCL was also improved Thai students’ confidence in communicating using English.
