Học Tiếng Việt giỏi như thế nào - Effective ways to learn Vietnamese well

This time, let's share the effective ways for you to learn Vietnamese.
  1. I effectively learn vietnamese vocabulary by making flashcards and by writing down the words multiple times. This allows me to memorize the tones on the vocabulary terms. Furthermore, I skim through old vocabulary terms and notes as well since the language is cumulative and remembering previous rules and vocabulary helps construct sentences. Another way to help me speak Vietnamese is to speak to my parents in the language when I call home.
  2. I learn Vietnamese by doing the exercises in class, where we apply and learn new things at the same time. The more I use or see for example words, the better I know them. How easy it is to remember things depends on how I can relate to it. For example, the last chapter about hobbies is easier to remember, since I can relate to it better than for example vocabulary about time. So when I study the chapters at home, I try to find things I can relate or associate the new words or grammar with.
  3. The more that I practice writing and speaking in Vietnamese, the better I know the material. The most effective way to learn Vietnamese vocabulary for me is by making flash cards and drilling myself on the vocab. Once I know the vocabulary really well, it's easier for me to understand the grammar and put sentences together.
  4. I learn Vietnamese effectively by skimming through the summary of vocabulary and patterns at the end of each chapter. I also write down the words multiple times so that I can get the tones of the words down correctly. Repetition helps me learn Vietnamese better.
  5. I learn Vietnamese most effectively by writing sentences and trying to read more. The more time I spend on it, the more familiar it is, therefore making communicating in Vietnamese easier and more comfortable.

  6. I agree with Annelin. I think the easier the vocabulary is to relate to, the easier it is. I also really like this week's activities, and the explanations of the grammar and then the exercises right after. I thought listing the grammar on the board was really helpful! It made me realize how much we had learned over the week. I also think going over the homework in class reinforces what I'm doing at home. It's great to see how much improvement has happened over the semester.
