English Club - Ho Chi Minh City

Hi,  I want to better my English and like to join your club . Please put my name on your list. Thanks

I'm a native English speak that would love to drop by to help out in English clubs such at this! I land on Tues next week though, so I think I'll miss the first meeting...regardless I think this is a great idea and I'd love to be a part of it when I arrive. If you know of any English clubs in/around D.4 or D.7 let me know as well- I will have a lot of free time on my hands and want to help out where I can. Thanks!

My name is Nguyet, could I join your group? I know info about your group very late so I miss first week. Please answer me soon,

I'd like to join the club. It's so interesting!

Hello everyone!

I am really glad that you all want to join the club. I would like everyone to come to our next meeting this Sunday at 3:00 pm. I was thinking to held the meeting at Soi Da Coffee shop in District 3. Does anyone know if the coffee shop is any good in term of peaceful environment? I do not want to come to the coffee shop with loud music which can be annoyance and distraction. Anyone would recommend other decent places would be much appreciated.

Hi Tomkat, Soi Da is a nice place for meeting up but not sure if it's good for your English club as they have music all day (normally nice old style Vietnamese music) which may keep you listening to the music and forgetting to discuss together - lol - just my idea. There's a very nice coffee shope named Pergola in Phu Nhuan district - they have a private area where my friends and I used to study at, tho it's quite long time ago so I'm not sure how it is now.

Soi da , ngô thời nhiệm, right?

Hi aibiet150204,

Thank you for the information and recommendation. Phu Nhuan is a little far.  I want something close by District 3 as possible.


Hi Cang,

Yes it is on Ngo thoi nhiem. But I think it is too noisy for our club since it plays music all day as stated by aibiet150204. I think we need to find another place.

Since I am not very familiar with any coffee shop, does anyone know any good coffee shop with spacious area, and peaceful environment, preferably within District 3?  Please refer it to us. Appreciate greatly.

hi
I'd like to join in the next meeting. When you have the final decision about the place and time, It would be nice if you send me that information at email: [email protected].
Thank you

Tomkat, there are plenty of coffee shops in district 1 and 3 (near center) that you can arrange your English club - you may want to check it out before you decide. An idea is to fix a place then keep your club at that place, so that you do not need to waste time to find a place every week. I will pm you some places that I think it may be suitable for your club.

I would cordially invite everyone who interested to join our English club to attend our weekly meeting this coming Sunday, March 2, 2014 at 3:00pm.

               Location:    Alexa Coffee
                                  202 Pasteur Street, District 3
               Tel:             (08)  38220020

                Fee:    Free.  Attendee pay for own drink.

Topic of discussion:   "New Year resolution." If you don't have a resolution yet, then find something that you like to change, example: your current job, your place of residence, bad habits, etc....Please indicate why you want to make those changes?

We will meet in the back patio of the coffee entrance.

Hope to see everyone there!

Not a problem at all, Tomkat. Coffee is one of my favourites that now doctor doesnt want me to keep the "bad habit" of having 1 cup  everyday. So, I hope you enjoy "coffee shop culture" in Saigon. Check your pm, not sure if it helps... And thank you for the "invitation", I would definitely love to join you guys but I have a class from 3-5pm on weekend. Maybe, somedays if I have "day-off". Have a good time with your English club.

Hi aibiet150204,

Thank you for your pm. I definitely have absorbed and enjoyed the "coffee shop culture" here in Saigon. It's too bad that you couldn't join us. May be next time then.

You said D4 or D7 street. It's near my house.
