Thuý

Thuy is an incredibly gifted teacher. She always knows how to help me advance in my study of Vietnamese and she is very, very patient! Lessons with Thuy are always fun and interesting. She is the best teacher and also a very kind and generous person.

This was another terrific lesson with lots of conversation. Thank you so much for all of the time you take to help me learn and improve my speaking.

Today I was able to learn a lot about some important cultural holidays and traditions in Vietnam. I also learned many new words and terms related to this. She presented things in a very interesting manner and kept me engaged. Excellent teacher.

Thúy has helped me study Vietnamese for 8 months now. I started out only knowing “Xin chào” and “Cảm ơn”, and have now made a trip to Hanoi where I held basic conversations with native speakers. Thúy provides a relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy for you to say “I don’t understand this, can you explain it?” Especially with the tones, where I felt embarrassed by how many times I had to practice, but she was always patient and helped me get it right. And she continues to correct me with pronunciation each lesson! You can’t learn a language in only a few hours each week, so you have to practice on your own outside of class, and Thúy recommended great resources to help me in studying Vietnamese outside of our class time.

I feel like my Vietnamese speaking skills gradually improving with my italki sessions with Thúy. She keeps the conversations on pace and fun.

Excellent teacher. Quick witted and adapts quickly to your style and ability. Her method really helps to bring out the Vietnamese that I may have learned, but was tucked away. italki at its finest.
