Very few (few few few) words in chinese sound similar to vietnamese but that's as far as it can get. The vietnamese language contains the usual "ABC" of English, except for f, j, w, and sometimes z. If none of the colleges around your area have vietnamese classes, then I think you can try learning it from other vietnamese people around your area. Maybe even rent a couple vietnamese movies... with subtitles. I don’t think there is any language that is similar to vietnamese.

It's not that you can actually learn vietnamese from learning those languages, it's that vietnamese is a tonal language and it is very difficult to master for someone who comes from a non-tonal background. The same word with different tones can have five different meanings.
