Wowowow! Hai Yen is a fantastic Vietnamese teacher who knows what she is doing. You can tell she puts in a lot of work and enjoys teaching. I requested to learn some slang I can use when I go back to Vietnam and she taught me a bunch of cool / funny phrases. She also provided a powerpoint with illustrations, spreadsheet, and audio files which are very helpful. If you are looking for a AMAZING Vietnamese teacher, look no further! Highly recommend.

Time flies with her because she shares so much information, and it's so interesting. I've already learned so many new words and phrases in a short time. I'm very inspired by her lessons.

Hai Yen is outstanding. Her lessons are the best use of my time each week. I learn more from her in our hour than I do in weeks of anything else I have tried. She is pleasant, prepared, patient, and incredibly present in all messages. Despite my many mistakes, she is encouraging and kind. I would encourage anyone to try her lessons. I have recommended her to my wife and would be happy to encourage anyone interested in Vietnamese to book a lesson with her. I am blessed to have her as an instructor.

Hai Yen is a great teacher, I have worked with her many times now in the past couple weeks. I have a bit of a mix of intermediate and beginner understanding of Vietnamese due to my background but she accommodates for me just fine. As we do our intermediate class I raise a question about something small and we're able to take a detour to strengthen my fundamentals. There was even one instance where I had to do a last minute reschedule and since we had a good rapport I was able to move it around. Also I speak the southern accent but she handles it just fine and makes distinctions of when a word is from the north or southern accent. Lesson time is so exciting since I feel a little bit closer to home.

Wonderful teacher! Explains everything very well. Helps you really understand what you are saying and be able to make new sentences instead of just memorizing specific phrases. Very encouraging and kind with feedback!

She is really excellent and is the best use of time Vietnamese learning time.
