I’ve been taking Vietnamese lessons with Tuân for over a year, completing more than 100 lessons so far. Thanks to his teaching, I’ve gained significant confidence in speaking and listening, so much so that I’ve noticed Vietnamese content popping up in my social media feeds! What makes Tuân stand out is his ability to make lessons feel like natural, enjoyable conversations rather than rigid classroom sessions. After each lesson, I often feel like I’ve just finished chatting with a friend rather than wrapping up a language class. His teaching method is structured yet flexible: he ensures a strong foundation in the basics before smoothly progressing to more complex sentence structures and real-life topics. This approach has helped me build my skills steadily without feeling overwhelmed. For new learners, my advice is simple: stay consistent. The more effort you put in, the more you’ll get out of it—and with Tuân as your teacher, the journey is both rewarding and enjoyable!

Tuân is very knowledgeable in language learning, and is able to make difficult concepts easy to understand. I love the cultural exchange we had in the last couple of lessons!

Tuan has helped me learn so much Vietnamese from absolutely nothing! These last few months have been not only fun, but the perfect environment to learn. Tuan has a well structured approach to teaching, allowing you to holistically learn the language in all aspects, Including speaking, listening, writing, and conversation practice. His classroom environment is also very relaxed, but also organized, allowing for an entertaining and constructive lesson every single time. He also can teach specific dialects if you are Interested, and is incredibly kind with every request and question you may have. I cannot recommend Tuan enough!!

I've been taking lessons with Tuân for nearly 4 months and my Vietnamese has improved greatly! I started taking lessons to speak with my in laws and can now hold basic conversations. 4 months of lessons have done more for my skills than years of apps, books, and self study. I started taking lessons so that way I can continue the language and culture for my unborn son. Tuân teaching style is engaging and practical, which makes language acquisition fun and purposeful. I used to take lessons once a week, but now take them 3 times a week. I will be very sad to take a short break during my maternity leave. I look forward to resuming lessons until I've mastered fluency! I have even occasionally found myself to be dreaming in Vietnamese and encouraging my friends and (non-Viet) family to start taking italki lessons as well! You can tell that Tuân is passionate about teaching, sharing in cultural exchange, and has genuine interest in your development as a speaker!

Great lesson. Thank you, teacher.

I highly recommend Tuân if you are looking to learn Vietnamese. He is great at breaking down the language and explaining things clearly. He is also incredibly patient, never rushes the lessons, and always works at a pace that feels comfortable for me. What I appreciate most is how he tailors every class to match my specific goals and needs. If you want a patient, helpful teacher who adapts completely to your learning style, he is a fantastic choice.
