Hi there! I’m Chi, a native tutor from Ho Chi Minh City.
If you are looking for an authentic Saigon accent, you've come to the right place! With over 5 years of experience in online teaching, I have helped many students communicate with confidence by focusing on natural pronunciation and practical conversation.
My lessons are more than just grammar; they are a journey into Vietnamese culture and lifestyle. What sets my classes apart is the dedicated support: after each lesson, you will receive organized materials and high-quality voice recordings to review and sharpen your listening skills at home.
Ready to take your Vietnamese to the next level? Book a trial session with me today, and leMe as a Teacher
My goal is to help you speak Vietnamese naturally and confidently! 🌟 I create a relaxed and supportive environment where you can practice speaking freely without the fear of making mistakes. 🤝
Every lesson is tailored to your specific goals and learning style, focusing on:
🗣️ Authentic Southern Vietnamese pronunciation.
💬 Practical conversation for real-life usage.
📚 Personalized materials & voice recordings provided after every class for your home practice.
Beyond the language, I’ll help you truly feel the Vietnamese culture and lifestyle 🧧🍜. Let’s make your Vietnamese flow naturally together! 🚀 My lessons & teaching style
- My lessons and teaching style are tailored to your preferences. Due to individual needs, every lesson is different.
- You can discuss any topic you like. By asking and answering questions, I can help you learn a few things about Vietnamese naturally through my online guide.
- Furthermore, you can have preferences to practice at home to deepen your understanding. My teaching methods and materials vary from videos, current affairs, recordings, MS Word, music, books, and comics, you name it.
🤩 I can assure you that you will have a little of a Saigonian accent (or even can swear like a Saigonese). I can also be your food tour guide in HCM city if you want to.My teaching material

Chi's lessons are exactly what I was looking for. She goes at a perfect pace and makes sure your pronunciation is correct. I love that she includes tips and tricks for speaking in every day conversations and education on Vietnamese culture. I learn something new every session and making such quick progress with her!

Chi's teaching method is perfect for me, and I have pretty high standards 😅. She is helping me improve my listening, and every class she lets me listen many times, asks me questions to help me get the meaning, and helps me learn some new words that are natural in southern Vietnamese. Honestly, these classes are invaluable to me!
