While driving, it’s important that you keep your focus on the road, so this is why our top tips won’t require you to use your hands!

Listening to Vietnamese audio content in the car is a good way to learn
This is because it is a fun and efficient way to learn. With VietnamesePod101.com podcasts, you will be able to discover Vietnamese culture through topics about everyday life.

You can listen to Vietnamese music in the car
Did you know that you can learn Vietnamese by singing while driving? Listen to songs from cartoon or drama and try to identify some words you learned.

Challenge yourself! Use the Vietnamese you’ve studied up to this point and see how much you understand! Making the jump to real-life Vietnamese is a scary one, but friendly children’s songs are a great place to start!

You can learn alone in your car
When you’re driving alone, you can be as loud as you want – there is nothing better for remembering your Vietnamese lessons than repeating loudly, again and again. Next time you see a driver who seems to be talking alone, you will know he or she is just learning Vietnamese!

You can learn through repetition with your passengers
If there are passengers in the car, it can be more stimulating to learn together. You can set a role play with Vietnamese dialogues. With VietnamesePod101.com, you can download all the lessons transcript including the dialogues, as a PDF. Print it out and have some fun speaking in Vietnamese!

One of the passengers can answer the quiz available on each of our lessons, while another can correct that person. Listening to someone at a more advanced level of Vietnamese or a better accent is positive and helps you improve.

You can learn Vietnamese offline
Do you have a poor connection or are unable to use the Internet? It’s not a problem for learning Vietnamese! Before you start your commute, use our App to download the lessons you want to study and the podcast you want to listen to in your car, and you will be able to enjoy your lessons offline. Entering a tunnel won’t be a problem anymore. What a pleasure to listen to audio content without having the host freezing every 5 seconds!

You can learn every day at your own pace
One of the best approaches for learning a language is little by little and often. It’s not efficient to take in a huge amount of information at one time. What you need is to study on a regular basis – a little bit of Vietnamese every day. You commute several days a week, and that is all time you can take advantage of!

You have the freedom to choose the lessons and podcasts you want to focus on, at your own rhythm. You may want to do a little revision or discover how to talk about a new topic. And if you’re wondering what to learn next, you can use the new Learning Paths, which is our customized pathway feature that gives you a step-by-step way to learn Vietnamese without getting lost!

If you don’t have a car and commute by another method, these tips are still valid!

Reaching a conversational level will take you less time than you could ever have imagined! Don’t forget to sign up for your Free Lifetime Account and enjoy our content!
