    Hong Thi
    Highly Experienced Native Vietnamese Tutor with a Proven Track Record
    Speak Vietnamese Fluently in Just 2 Months! I am passionate about helping learners not only master Vietnamese but also gain a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culture. I will guide you to pronounce naturally like a native speaker and communicate confidently in any situation. ‍The biggest challenge for Vietnamese learners is pronunciation and addressing people correctly. With six tones and a complex system of pronouns that change based on formality, age, gender, and family relationships, it can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry! I’ll guide you through it and help you gain confidence from the very first lesson! Whether you're a student, a professional, living with Vietnamese people, or have Vietnamese friends or colleagues, I’m here to support you. I always tailor my teaching approach to keep you motivated, engaged, and increasingly confident in using Vietnamese. With just 2 months of learning with me, you'll be able to communicate confidently!

We approach vocabulary, grammar, conversation and listening in a progressive and interactive way. Are you a beginner? No worries, we will work from the basics using French or English to help you. If you already have some knowledge, we will choose together the grammar points on which you will focus to progress effectively :) 🍡 Advanced Reading and Listening For learners who already have a solid foundation, these courses help strengthen your reading and listening skills. If you have texts or content that you would like to explore, we will use them in class. Otherwise, I will provide you with resources adapted to your level and interests! 🍡 JLPT exam preparation Prepare effectively for the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test), a recognized exam that validates your level of Japanese.

    Speak Natural and Polite Korean with a Native Tutor
    ✅ Want to speak polite and natural Korean like a native? People often get so caught up in the methodology of learning Korean language, but it's not about what method you use. It's about how much input you get and how often you practice it. Many Korean textbooks for foreign learners include expressions that sound unnatural or even rude in real conversations. I'll help you avoid these and speak clearly and respectfully, just like real Koreans do. ✅ Who is this tutor and what is this session? I'm Yeon, a native Korean tutor with 4 years of experience and an intermediate level of English. In this session, you'll practice Korean through real, structured conversation. The tone is relaxed but focused, with clear guidance and mutual respect. I'll gently correct your sentences and pronunciation as you speak, helping you sound more natural and confident. You'll pick up everyday language that's actually used in real conversations. Advanced learners can also work on tone, nuance, and fluency. This session is for respectful, sincere learners at any level. ✅ What you'll get: - Real-time speaking practice with live corrections - Natural and polite Korean expressions - Gentle correction during conversation - Simple review notes after each session - Cultural context from a native speaker - Zoom sessions from anywhere ✅ Lessons are online via Zoom. - I'm in Korea. (KST time zone) - Please be on time so we can use the full 60 minutes efficiently. - Please contact me before booking to schedule your session time. Let's build your Korean step by step. As your tutor, I'll guide you with care! Thank you, Yeon

    Student in Japan for 3 years, offers online courses!
    I have been a French student in Japan for 2 years now at APU University (OITA Prefecture)!! I also hold the N2, Japanese certification. I offer introductory and advanced Japanese language training, which is essential for traveling and communicating with Japanese people. Upon request, I can also assist with academic Japanese language training, which can be used for university studies in Japan. I prefer speaking and could, upon request, give you the opportunity to chat with some of my Japanese friends to familiarize you with the different accents and the Japanese language. I also have Japanese language textbooks provided by the university that I will refer to if needed. Being a big fan of manga and anime myself, I plan to use them to further the course!! Typical procedure: - discussion about everyday life - introduction of new words and KANJI/KANA - written and oral practice - introduction to a new grammar and putting it into practice - discussion and analysis of manga/anime or other media This course is aimed at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. よろしくお願いします!!
