“Being a second generation Vietnamese-Australian, joining Sydney Language Solutions has allowed me to speak to my parents, relatives and other Vietnamese people with more confidence and ease.
Topics studied in the classes relate to every day activities and situations which I can apply in real life.
Learning in small groups has been beneficial to me because I can ask questions anytime without feeling like I am disrupting the class, Na is able to focus on our progress more closely, and we are encouraged to participate in activities such as reading out loud.
Na is an approachable and friendly person and always goes out of her way to help us improve.”
(Lombard Lam, Vietnamese Student)
Na is the most committed, passionate, patient, and professional language teacher I have had.
She is very committed to her students and displays a fantastic rigour in the preparation and delivery of her classes. She pays great particular attention to each of her student’s development and needs.
She has a terrific sense of humour and is very understanding, which always makes for a fun and positive learning environment. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
(Marc Cara, Vietnamese Student)
Na’s classes have been invaluable for me in a personal and professional sense. The weekly language learning and practice have helped me to further my research on environmental change in Vietnam, by expanding my Vietnamese vocab as well as ‘thinking’ in a Vietnamese way! I joined Na’s classes in order to improve my spoken Vietnamese and thus improve my in-country research in Vietnam. The resulting benefit has been much greater as I have the opportunity to improve my language skills in a continually adaptive teaching environment that is also a lot of fun! We all enjoy Vietnamese celebration nights where we discuss culturally relevant words and events over culinary specialties!
