About me Xin chào! I’m Phụng, a native Vietnamese speaker from Ho Chi Minh City. I’ve been teaching on italki since 2023, helping beginner and intermediate learners start speaking Vietnamese with confidence. Whether you’re learning for travel, for work, or to talk with a partner’s or friend’s family, we’ll focus on the Vietnamese you will actually use. My experience I’m a language learner myself, so I know how challenging it is to start a new language. That’s why I explain Vietnamese by comparing it with the languages you already speak, especially tones and pronunciation, which are the hardest part at the beginning. My teaching style Speaking comes first. From the first minutes of our lesson, you’ll speak short dialogues, real-life situations (family, food, travel, daily life) and pronunciation practice. I correct gently, focusing on the two or three most important mistakes, so you stay confident. Don’t be shy. This is a place to speak without fear! I prepare slides, audio, quizzes and PDFs for each lesson. Trial lesson: we talk about your goals, check your level, and you’ll say your first Vietnamese sentences. Then I’ll suggest a clear plan for the next lessons.

Excellent class given in a very profession manner. She had slides for the first class based off of the information provided to iTalki so that she and my son could have something to study and talk about. I was very impresses and she also encourage my son to respond in Vietnamese very consistently which was something I specifically requested.
