I really like going here and there, wanting to explore many places in the country as well as the world. So I decided to learn and plan to register for admission to the Tourism and Travel Service Management major" - Thuy Trang shared.
To prepare for the upcoming entrance exam, female students are focusing on reviewing three main subjects: Math, Literature and English to improve admission results. According to Trang, foreign languages are important skills for the tourism sector, especially in the context of the service industry increasingly integrating and contacting many international tourists.
