Emotional farewell celebration: English teachers promote talents in Meo VAC!

Mèo Vạc, Vietnam - The efforts to impart the English language to students in Meo Vac have achieved an important milestone. In a final conference that took place on May 12, 2023, the project for online English lessons for elementary school students was presented and recognized. Organized by the Mèo Vạc municipal administration and the renowned Marie Curie School in Hanoi, representatives of the Ministry of Education, headmaster, teacher and pupils, gathered to reflect on the success and challenges of the program.Hagiangtvreports that the first lessons took place under extremely difficult conditions because many students had no previous knowledge in English.

As part of the project, an impressive development of the students in the past three years has been shown. 100% of the 5th grade students in the school year 2023-2024 successfully completed the English lessons, and over 31.1% achieved good performances. This is a remarkable improvement, especially when you consider that in the school year 2022-2023 there was only one English teacher available in the district for 76 third classes.Vietnam.vnreports that Vang Thi My, a student, was selected for her excellent English skills to take part in a competition at the district level, which illustrates her progress.

Emotional connections and future projects

The emotional connections created between teachers and students were particularly felt during the final ceremony. Vang Thi My cried when she said goodbye to her teacher Bui Huong Ly, who has taught her online for the past three years. The students initially had difficulty building a personal bond with their teacher until they finally met her in reality. Nguyen Xuan Khang, the headmaster of the Marie Curie School, emphasizes the positive effects of these emotional connections and is already planning another project for the training of English teachers in the region with estimated costs of 12 billion and.

In addition, the founding of the Marie Curie - Meo Vac Boarding School for ethnic minorities was announced during the conference, which is expected to open in the school years 2026/2027. The school is intended to help improve the educational landscape in the region and to cope with the existing challenges, such as the lack of teachers. In the Meo Vac district, a total of almost 3,000 teachers, especially in subjects such as English.

Sustainable development and community participation

The project also shows how important the cooperation between schools, government and community is in order to close the knowledge gap for students in remote areas. Nguyen Xuan Khang and his team of teachers are also involved in the local community, for example through reforestation projects and the provision of school materials for needy students. This underlines the role of education as a key to social development in rural regions.

The learning results and the use of the teachers have not only improved school qualifications, but also promoted general school education in MeO VAC. This makes a positive trend in the region's education policy, which will be of great importance for future generations of students.
