Speak Vietnamese Fluently in Just 2 Months!

Hi! I'm Thương, a Vietnamese teacher from Hanoi – the heart of Vietnam's culture.

I'm a patient, cheerful, friendly tutor who is passionate about helping international learners speak Vietnamese naturally and confidently.

In my lessons, I use real-life stories and everyday conversations to help you not only improve your Vietnamese, but also understand the culture behind the language. Whether you're focusing on grammar or communication, I will always tailor the lessons to what you need most — so that you can see fast and meaningful progress.

Whether you are:
✅ A complete beginner starting your Vietnamese journey
✅ Planning a trip to Vietnam and want to speak like a local
✅ Working or doing business in Vietnam and seeking deeper connections
✅ Moving to Vietnam to live with your loved ones
✅ Or simply fascinated by the Vietnamese language and culture
— I have a personalized roadmap just for you.

I’ve worked with students from Japan, South Korea, the U.S., Germany, China, and more – helping them not only master the Vietnamese language but also deeply understand the culture and people of Vietnam.

I teach in the Northern Vietnamese accent (Hanoi dialect). I also speak English (TOEIC 800+) and Japanese (JLPT N2), which allows me to explain difficult concepts in an easy and understandable way.

Outside of teaching, I love traveling, exploring, and taking international friends to discover local food, cultural sites, and hidden gems around Hanoi.

I hold a professional certificate in Teaching Vietnamese as a Foreign Language. With over 5 years of experience, I have taught students of all levels – from absolute beginners to advanced learners aiming to use Vietnamese for work and daily life.

What I offer:
Vietnamese for everyday communication
Vietnamese for travelers
Vietnamese for work and business
Correct pronunciation with the Northern accent
Vietnamese culture, customs, and norms

Focused skills practice: speaking, listening, reading, writing

I also hold an International Tour Guide License, so if you're planning to visit Vietnam, I can guide you on amazing journeys across the country – from North to South.

And when you’re in Hanoi, we can even study together offline at some chill cafés or beautiful cultural spots in the city – learning in the most fun and authentic way possible!

Do you find Vietnamese tones hard to remember?
Is the grammar too flexible and confusing?
Maybe you’ve studied for a while, but still can’t speak naturally?
Or you feel like Vietnamese is dry and difficult to enjoy?
You might have thought: “Why is Vietnamese so hard...?”

You’ve been there, right?

👉 I totally understand – many of my students have felt the same way at first.
But don’t worry! With the right approach, Vietnamese can actually be fun, clear, and full of life. 🌱I’ll help you learn with simple, practical, and interactive lessons that match your pace and interests.

Whether you want to speak confidently while traveling, understand your Vietnamese partner better, or simply explore this beautiful language and culture — I’m here to guide you.

Together, we’ll turn confusion into clarity, and fear into confidence. 💪

Let’s make Vietnamese learning an enjoyable journey you’ll love!

👉 Don’t wait any longer – apply now and let’s start your Vietnamese journey together!

I know how to study Japanese and guide you to what you aim for (please take a look at my profile). I expect you to work hard, really hard, not only during class but before and after as well. I might ask you do homework to strengthen what needs extra practice. If you have a question that you noticed after class, contact me.

Ex-Editor from Tokyo, Now Teaching in London

Hello, I’m Minami.

If you want to speak natural Japanese, not textbook Japanese, I’m here to help you.

I’m originally from Tokyo and currently living in London.
I worked as an editor at a major publishing company in Japan before moving to the UK for graduate study.

Because I’ve studied English and French for many years (and lived abroad), I truly understand the joy, frustration, and breakthrough moments of learning a new language.

🌿 Who I work best with:
• People planning to move to Japan
• Those with a Japanese partner
• Professionals who need business Japanese
• Learners who want to understand Japanese culture deeply

In our lessons, you will:

✓ Speak more confidently from Day 1
✓ Learn expressions real Japanese people actually use
✓ Understand cultural nuance (not just grammar)
✓ Build a personalised study system that fits your life

I have taught Japanese to over 20 learners through language exchange programs and now teach online students worldwide.

In our first lesson, we will clarify your goals and create a clear action plan. You’ll leave with practical phrases you can use immediately.

Learning Japanese should feel motivating, not overwhelming.
Let’s build your confidence step by step.

I look forward to meeting you.
