Xin chào · Xin chào
Vietnamese uses a Latin alphabet with six tones, which makes the writing easier than it looks and the speaking a matter of training your ear. Classes work on pronunciation from the start, with the practical vocabulary of travel, family and work. Lingo works with Viet Noi, so the teachers and method are the ones students already know.
What are you looking for?

Why Lingo
Never more than eight students, so you speak in every lesson and your teacher hears every answer.
Lingo is an official test for MCCY and MFA officers. We take pride in the quality of our courses and assessments, and that expertise goes into every programme we deliver.


Who it is for
Meetings, email and negotiation in the register colleagues really use, plus the Vietnamese for clients, suppliers and presentations.
Order, ask the way and hold a real conversation on your next trip, with the everyday Vietnamese that hotels, markets and taxis run on.
Go past memorised phrases into the grammar behind them, so you can read, watch and follow the culture in Vietnamese rather than a translation.
Course outline
Every level splits into two class steps, so the jump from one to the next stays manageable. Here is the route from your first sentence to professional fluency.

“I took Vietnamese A1.1 and A1.2 over half a year under Chi Xuan, and it was a fantastic experience. She keeps lessons light-hearted while covering every topic — my Vietnamese clients thought I had studied for years!”

How you will learn
Vietnamese classes follow the same method as every language at Lingo: a group of no more than eight, a native-speaking teacher, and a lesson that spends its time on speaking, listening, reading and writing — in that order of emphasis, and in the proportions your goal needs.
Small enough that you speak in every lesson.
Learn the language as it is really spoken.
