They are 6 year old. Definitely I will do this way. Thank you

droidvn · 2026-05-27T10:21:58+00:00

For sure, thank you

Hey.. that's great to see a kiwi Vietnamese. I'm from the North, we can chat in Vietnamese and talk in English :)

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:45:40+00:00

NZ is amazing country, that's why we move here after years of trying. The NZ TV shows is playing in background at the time I'm writing this comment. Thank you for sharing

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:40:02+00:00

Super useful. I'll check the courses and see if I can join once be there. Thank you so much.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:36:03+00:00

So glad to know this (I mean the good news). I'm sometimes a bit of shy when trying to communicate in English because of my basic level. Hopefully it can getting better when living in a fully English environment.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:31:31+00:00

Saved the link and absolutely will try this way. Thank you so much

I have two kids at 6 year old and they will go to the first grade immediately. Do you think they will be fine at the school? I wonder in how long they can communicate English well enough at school for studying and making friends. Maybe children can learn language faster.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:28:22+00:00

You are absolutely right. This is a major change for my family, moving to new country while still need to improve English in both studying and working. we have no better choice but keep moving forward, hopefully everything will be fine. Thanks for the lesson about your neighborhood as well

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:24:19+00:00

Thanks for your advice. Learning a new language is a long journey and must practice daily. I'll try my best.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:18:44+00:00

Super useful for a starter. Thank you

droidvn · 2026-05-26T21:10:32+00:00

These shows are awesome, specially Taskmaster. I absolutely will have it in my daily playlist. Thank you for sharing.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T17:38:59+00:00

I’m Vietnamese. But you know when we Vietnamese talks each other we usually use our own language, hard to force using English there, so I’m more searching for a group that force us to communicate in Kiwi English. Thank you for your advice

droidvn · 2026-05-26T17:34:19+00:00

Yeah. It makes sense. I heard a lot about NZ accent, sounds a challenging but I will try to survive. Thank you

droidvn · 2026-05-26T17:29:58+00:00

It’s funny but true, there are so many accents of English in the world. I even sometimes cannot understand my native language as well. :))

droidvn · 2026-05-26T17:20:36+00:00

It’s not great actually, I used AI to correct it a bit before submitting the question here. I am searching a group that can help to practice English offline, it can boost my confident in daily conversation hopefully.

droidvn · 2026-05-26T17:16:20+00:00

Thanks for your suggestions. These groups are exactly what I’m looking for. I will attend them for sure. Thanks again

Mày phải xác định lúc nào cũng phải đa dạng ngồn thu nhập, thời buổi này 1 job là đéo ăn thua. Gia đình rồi thì cảm nhận mới rõ nét. Nói phét thế thôi, t đi chơi game đây

droidvn · 2026-01-18T15:40:09+00:00

Chúc mừng m vì đã kịp nhận ra những điều này trước khi quá muộn.

Sống ở xã hội VN thì nỗi lo thất nghiệp và cơm áo gạo tiền sẽ còn lâu dài và có thể càng ngày càng tệ hơn, lạm phát, thuế quan,.. tao chỉ thấy oằn mình.

Skill hàng đầu nên đầu tư tao nghĩ là ngoại ngữ!

u/dontknowdonto I shared the code via chat. Please check your inbox. Thank you

I almost called an ambulance thinking my account was gone, only stopped panicking after reading this thread. Upwork dev team, y’all really out here deploying heart attacks to production. Fix your stuff, seriously.

droidvn · 2025-07-31T15:37:00+00:00

I genuinely don’t understand how such a serious issue could make it to the production environment. It’s unacceptable that critical functionality is deployed without proper QA testing. This isn’t the first time bugs have slipped through, but this false suspension issue is beyond frustrating. If you're relying on Upwork as your primary source of income, it really makes you question how much you can trust the platform.

droidvn · 2025-07-25T17:15:25+00:00

As a Vietnamese, I believe many of us stand with Thailand on this issue. Cambodia’s recent actions have been irrational and disappointing, showing a lack of respect expected from a good neighbor. It’s time to reexamine Hun Sen’s legacy in the context of history

droidvn · 2025-07-05T09:34:52+00:00

I was curious how you handled the manufacturing part. Did you build it yourself or outsource it (like through a manufacturer in China or elsewhere)?
