Foreign language education initiatives in Vietnam

Overview

Vietnam is expanding its foreign language education through various specialized models and proficiency initiatives.

In the English language sector, educational institutions are implementing communicative learning environments. Preschools in Ninh Binh are utilizing songs and storytelling to build early interest, while schools in Ho Chi Minh City, such as Tay Thanh High School, have established ‘English speaking spaces’ to allow students to practice listening and speaking through flexible activities without the pressure of formal grades.

Simultaneously, initiatives for Chinese language proficiency are growing. The 2026 ASEAN Chinese Language Teacher Capacity Building Program in Ho Chi Minh City focused on updating teaching methods with digital technology and preparing for HSK 3.0 standards. Additionally, Lac Hong University hosted a large-scale Chinese speech competition in Dong Nai, involving 1,000 students from 19 universities to promote cultural exploration and strengthen academic and enterprise cooperation.
