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!

Great lesson with Shinegi! We did a translation exercise, where I had to take a dialog in English and change it to Vietnamese. It was really good practice, because I was able to translate more of it than I thought I could. Shinegi also updated our shared document to add useful "classroom vocabulary", which I thought was helpful. Next, we practiced pronunciation of similar-sounding initial consonants. Shinegi is doing a nice job of helping me develop a correct pronunciation. She also has a lot of positive energy and makes the lesson fun!

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!

Great lesson with Shinegi! We talked about the holidays. Shinegi checked my pronunciation with c, g and qu. There are a lot of words that sound similar, so pronunciation and listening are very important. I still get confused, but less than before. Shinegi uses different slides and images to make learning the vocabulary more interesting, which makes her class fun!

Great lesson with Shinegi! We worked a lot on pronunciation today, specifically the difference between a, â, and ă. We used many examples to practice. I really started to hear the difference and be able to pronounce the sounds properly. Shinegi also gave me the materials so that I can practice. Listening and speaking is helping me to improve. Thanks to Shinegi for helping me with pronunciation!
