Vietnam implements diverse English language learning models

Educational institutions in Vietnam are implementing diverse models to integrate English as a second language, focusing on natural exposure and communicative environments across different age groups.

In preschool settings, such as in Ninh Binh, the emphasis is on introducing English through natural experiences like songs, games, and storytelling to build confidence and interest without the pressure of formal memorization. Plans are underway to develop teacher training and specialized models to support English as a second language in early childhood education by the 2026-2027 school year.

In Ho Chi Minh City, schools are creating dedicated 'English speaking spaces' for primary and high school students. At Tay Thanh High School, these spaces allow students to practice listening and speaking through flexible activities and games without the pressure of grades. These initiatives often involve interaction with native teachers to help students overcome shyness and improve pronunciation and reflexes.
