Because of love
Teacher Tran Lan Phuong was born and raised in her hometown Ha Nam. In 2003, after graduating from the pedagogical department, she chose Da Bac district as her starting place of work. After more than 20 years of working and holding many positions, Ms. Phuong has considered this mountainous district as her second hometown to be attached to.
Recalling her early days at work, Ms. Phuong shared: “At first, the salary was low, the nature of the preschool teacher’s job was hard and did not meet the needs of life, and I had to depend a lot on my family. However, with the encouragement and understanding of my family, the conversations and sharing with colleagues, and the joy of going to school with children in the highlands, I was determined to pursue this career.”
According to Ms. Phuong, the highland areas, where most of the students are ethnic minorities, are still facing many economic difficulties. The situation of students not being able to go to school at the right age is common. With their love for the profession, teachers have crossed mountains, waded through streams, traveled dozens of kilometers to each family to convince parents to let their children go to school.
With her continuous efforts during her work, Ms. Phuong has had many initiatives that have been recognized and highly appreciated. These include: Measures to direct teachers of Tu Ly A Kindergarten to build a child-centered educational environment. Measures to effectively direct the organization of traffic safety seminars in Tu Ly A Kindergarten.
