What students say about us

I’ve been studying Vietnamese with Phước for two years. Classes are fun and engaging. Outside of class, practicing in the real world is easy because the lessons are always relevant to everyday life and current events. Plus, I frequently get compliments from locals on my pronunciation!

I have had the most fun learning experience with Jenny, for anyone looking for a fast and fun learning journey, I would like to recommend Jenny!

Learning with teacher Phước Võ is a sweet experience. Classes are funny and she tries her best to help everyone to participate and stay active in class. Why do I recommend her over other Vietnamese classes I had?
Well, she is always paying attention to our pronunciation (what is a must for a good Vietnamese), and thanks to that I can properly enjoy life, parties and relationships with all my Vietnamese friends.

I’ve had many teachers since moving to Vietnam in 2011 and have stuck with Cô Phuoc because she really understands the difficulties we have. She has helped me gain confidence in speaking with strangers and read news articles in Vietnamese. I greatly appreciate her patience and ability to spot my bad habits. I’ve recommended her to numerous friends without any reservation.

I have been studying Vietnamese with Jenny for over a year, and will surely keep it with her. 🙂
Jenny’s class is simple, essential and easy to participate in, which I think is the best way to learn new languages, especially at an early stage. Jenny also shares very practical words and expressions(that you cannot learn from Google or dictionaries!) so I could have learnt “living” vietnamese, that can be used in many ways of actual Saigonese life! (Of course I can learn northern vietnamese too.)
I have been studying many foreign languages, and I know how important it is to have right lessons for each one’s level. I noticed that Jenny has reach teaching experience to measure each students’ level accurately, so can guide each better even in same class.
Altogether, I can highly recommend Jenny’s Vietnamese class, and believe you won’t regret with that decision! 😉

I’ve been studying Vietnamese online with Jenny for about 5 months now.
I really like her teaching method as she focuses on everyday life situations and practical language that real people in Saigon are using, not academic sentences that nobody uses.
She also insists and corrects me on my pronunciations which is one of the difficult parts of Vietnamese Language.
Besides the course, she is very nice, funny, approachable and she is open to talk about any topics related to Vietnamese culture, the news or subjects that interest me.
After 5 months, I have improved my level much more than in many years with other teachers!
I highly recommend learning Vietnamese with IziViet.

I have been studying with Phuoc for three years for about two hours a week. She is very accessible and helpful. We practice a lot of speaking and at this point, I can have intermediate conversations with people. My pronunciation has improved a lot and according to native Vietnamese speakers, they understand over 80% of the things I want to convey without me having to repeat myself. I have even had some in-depth conversations about life, the economy, etc. My grammar is also very strong and I rarely make grammatical errors. The lessons are fun and engaging.

I think my Vietnamese is improved a lot after having a class with Phuoc (Jenny). I like how she cares about my Vietnamese level so she can offer the right level of class. It’s not difficult but fun to learn to speak Vietnamese with her. Overall I really like the class and would love to recommend it to anyone who would like to learn Vietnamese.

I’ve studied online with Jenny for a few years. I’m US-born Vietnamese and felt the need to improve my Tieng Viet both personally and professionally. The lessons are structured around daily conversations and the vocabulary is built from there. There are reading/listening lessons to study outside of the online class. I would strongly suggest you try Jenny Vo for learning Vietnamese.

Before I met Jenny, I’d learned Vietnamese off and on for a few years, in the University, with other teachers. Jenny is the longest I studied with, and she is my favorite teacher.
As a not-beginner student, when I started learning with Jenny, I already had some bad habits. For example, I couldn’t pronounce “đ-t” and “ơ-ư” well. Jenny was VERY PATIENT helping me deal with this problem, making my Vietnamese more Vietnamese.
We shared about our life, plans for the future, talked about news, culture, Vietnamese movies, youtuber, podcast and even investment, all in Vietnamese. Jenny makes Vietnamese vivid, not just a language in a textbook.
Also, Jenny was a good coach for training taking Vietnamese exams. As an office worker who was gradually unfamiliar with taking examinations and didn’t have much time to prepare, Jenny helped me realize how to pursue great progress in Vietnamese.
The happiest thing to learn with Jenny was when the day moved on, I could understand more and more through articles, videos and audios. At the same time, I could talk with Jenny in more and more subjects and express my thoughts, it was such a wonderful feeling.
