For anyone looking to learn Vietnamese, here is what I personally use:
🇻🇳
Apps
* Duolingo (yes, I said it. It's a good foundation.) Free -includes premium
* Drops (use topics that correlate with what you are already learning, good for retaining memory. Like flashcards but fun.) Free -includes premium
* Learn Vietnamese Speak, Listen (yes, that is the name of the app 😭. Really good for speaking/listening especially if you don't have anyone to practice with. Learn content that correlates with your Duo/Drops lessons.) Free -includes premium
Books
* Lonely Planet Vietnamese Dictionary (self explanatory, good for reference. Any dictionary works.) $$$ pricey / may be found in public library ✅
* Reading and Writing Vietnamese: A Workbook for Self-Study (found on Amazon here, covers basically everything needed for beginners) $$$ pricey
YouTube
* Tieng Viet Oi- Vietnamese Lessons (here)
* What the Pho (here)
* Vietglish Fun (here)
* Learn Vietnamese with Annie (here)
* Learn Vietnamese With SVFF (Southern Vietnamese. here)
Individual Video Recs:
*The Vietnamese Alphabet
*Vowel Pronunciation
* Vietnamese Tones
* Counting 1-10

Hope this helps. Vietnamese is hard, but I believe in you!!! 🇻🇳💖
