Shinegi Duong 先生

Duong is a good teacher and is patient with me. And takes time to explain things. She gives me exercises for homework. This can be listening exercises or writing a short text. She puts class notes in a google doc for my later reference. She also has created a document with slides with pictures to explain words. Sometimes uses Youtube or Google images to explanation as well. Good teacher!

Amazing teacher! One of the best!

I’m so happy to be moving up to intermediate-level Vietnamese with Cô Dương 🥳 My first lesson of the new year was such a great start—we learned more about the Vietnamese Lunar New Year, Tết! I picked up lots of new vocabulary and discovered so many interesting things. I’m excited to keep improving!

Tôi học tiếng Việt với Cô Dương 6 tháng rồi! Cô ấy là một giáo viên rất tốt! Bây giờ tôi có nói chuyện bạn tôi bằng tiếng Việt :) Cảm ơn Dương!

Today we focus on translating, reading and spelling! Covered topics such as describing my home, and what’s around the area close by and transportation. Really had to use my brain as I have to translate English to Vietnamese and trying to remember the vocabulary I learn but it was a good lesson of review. Corrected homework also! Lessons always go by so quickly when we have class together :)

Great lesson with Shinegi! We read a paragraph about "before Tết" and one about "during Tết", since the lunar new year holiday just happened. Shinegi once again helped me focus on spelling and pronunciation, and I think that both are improving. Shinegi also sends me funny cartoons and things to look at during the week, which helps to keep me motivated!
