Tuân Huỳnh

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!

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!

Thanks a lot for the teaching and constant repetition!

Another excellent lesson with Tuân. -He speaks English very well and can explain grammar so it is easy to understand. -He is patient and adapts to my low level of Vietnamese. -Although Vietnamese pronunciation is difficult he shows the correct way to make the sounds. -I have gotten some insights into Vietnamese culture and food also. Recommended!

Thanks a lot for the class!

We had a very interesting lesson on Tết traditions in the north and in the south. Tuân is a teacher who is ready to explain you something you don’t understand or curious about, find examples, show a map, etc. He does not just follow the script and stick to the plan, but ready to adapt to the student’s needs right at the spot. I appreciate this approach.
