Introduction
About Trịnh Khánh Vy
Two years of teaching, leading the everyday speaking and Pre-IELTS classes. At this stage the goal of a session is a complete sentence — advanced vocabulary can wait until the sentence stands up on its own.
Beginners tend to hold back for fear of getting it wrong, so sessions are built around everyday topics where everyone already has something to say. For students carrying on to Pre-IELTS the topics shift gradually towards the range of the paper, while the method stays the same.

How these lessons run
Start on familiar ground
The first topics come from everyday life so students already have something to say, before moving towards exam topics.
Correct less, correct precisely
Each turn gets one point to fix — a beginner given several errors at once will simply stop speaking.
