Maybe you've studied with apps or textbooks, but real Vietnamese feels completely different. You know the words, but when someone speaks naturally, it's hard to follow. You may also wonder which expressions people actually use, how to pronounce tones clearly, or how to put everything you've learned into a real conversation. These are some of the challenges my students often come to me with, and helping them work through these challenges is an important part of what I do. Every lesson is built around your goals, interests, and level, with a focus on: - Real-life Vietnamese, including expressions people actually use - Clear pronunciation and tones - Building your own sentences and responses - Grammar that helps you communicate with confidence - Cultural and Northern / Central / Southern differences when they matter I prepare my own slides and materials for each lesson and guide you step by step, with plenty of opportunities to practice speaking. My lessons are structured but relaxed. You can make mistakes, ask questions, and take your time — that's all part of learning.

Learn Vietnamese with a native speaker from Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. I teach Standard Northern Vietnamese, which is widely used as a standard form of spoken Vietnamese. My lessons are suitable for beginners who want to learn Vietnamese for travel, everyday communication, work, relationships, or simply to connect with Vietnamese culture. I can help you build a strong foundation in pronunciation, tones, vocabulary and everyday conversation. We can also focus on practical Vietnamese that you can actually use in real-life situations. The lessons can be adapted to your level, goals and interests. I am happy to explain Vietnamese in English and create a relaxed and friendly learning environment where you can practise without feeling afraid of making mistakes.

Are you interested in Vietnamese? Do you have Vietnamese family and want to learn the language to speak with your loved ones? Or are you simply curious? I offer Vietnamese lessons for all levels, and I also share insights into the country's culture. I speak Vietnamese (native speaker) and can teach in French or English (I have two years of experience).
