Sayama Moe – Burmese Language Teacher in Yangon, Myanmar
Sayama (Burmese for ‘teacher’) Moe is friendly yet professional and has excellent feedback from foreign students who benefit from her teaching and learn Burmese quickly.
Sayama Moe’s Myanmar curriculum is both structured yet flexible to ensure that you can have Burmese lessons in Myanmar which enable you to learn how to speak, read and write the Burmese language quickly yet accurately. Her excellent level of English ensures that concepts are explained to you properly and comprehensively, and that you can ask any questions and receive clear answers.
Using different resources such as those by well-known teachers John Okell and Gene Mesher, Moe also creates her own material depending on the student’s needs. Some want to focus only on spoken Burmese while others want to learn the script as well.
How To Learn Burmese
There are many Myanmar teachers and each uses different techniques. But Sayama Moe has been mentored and trained by world-class Burmese language teachers and has incorporated this into her teaching style and materials. She listens carefully to student feedback and acts to ensure lessons are created and delivered that allow people to learn Burmese quickly, thoroughly and effectively.
Sayama Moe uses phonetics to teach Burmese for Beginner students who only want to learn how to speak Burmese and focuses on grammar, which many students identify as being crucial in their ability to learn Burmese properly. Drills and oral tests to make sure that the students understand what has been taught so far. As she warns students: “I am strict when it comes to pronunciation; any lapses in this area can lead to you being misunderstood, wasting your time and money.”
In addition, Sayama Moe uses Burmese songs to help reinforce learning and recall – music is a good way to learn a new language in a fun and relaxing way. Sayama Moe also provides each student with a special audio recording after a lesson so that students have personalised audio to listen to and practice, which focuses only on discrete lesson content. Personalised audi keeps the process of learning Burmese going after the formal lesson has ended and helps transform the new into the familiar.
