Efforts to study and review
Currently, final year students are quickly regaining their learning spirit, accelerating preparation with high determination. For Nguyen Dang Quang - a 9th grade student at Yen So Secondary School (Hanoi), the Tet holiday is a time for rest, and also a step to create momentum for him and his friends to accelerate for the upcoming 10th grade entrance exam.
Returning to school, Quang caught up with the year-end schedule, focusing on reviewing to do well on tests. At the same time, building a long-term study and review plan for the important exam.
Sharing about his study plan, Doan Tuan Tu - a 9th grade student at Nghia Tan Secondary School (Hanoi) - said that he is currently dividing the timetable equally for three official exam subjects: Math, Literature and English to firmly grasp knowledge, instead of prioritizing his favorite subject.
The male student also takes advantage of the time to review and make questions instead of playing at school. "In addition to the main lessons at school, I do not participate in breaks but will replace them with theoretical review and solving questions from previous years" - Tu shared.

Sharing with Lao Dong Newspaper, Ms. Nguyen Phuong Thao - a parent whose child is in 9th grade at Co Nhue 2 Secondary School (Hanoi) - said that her family is particularly worried about the increasing competitiveness of the 10th grade entrance exam. Therefore, in addition to studying in class, the family proactively strengthens tutoring for their child.
I registered my child to take extra classes in two subjects, Math and English, each subject three sessions a week to ensure that my child is not lacking knowledge and keeps up with his friends" - Ms. Thao shared.
Build appropriate strategies
Currently, schools are strengthening teaching and reviewing for final-grade students, helping them be ready to enter the important exam.
Ms. Pham Hong Minh - a teacher at Nghia Tan Secondary School (Hanoi) - said that in parallel with completing the program, the school has strengthened tutoring for 9th grade students through the time of tracing lessons at the beginning of the hour. At the same time, organize monthly survey exams and focus on marking and correction so that students can get acquainted with making questions as well as draw timely lessons.
To make review effective and avoid creating too much pressure for students in the final sprint, teachers believe that, besides personal efforts, proper guidance and timely advice from teachers play a very important role.
Each student needs to have a specific roadmap for themselves by setting appropriate goals, thereby being determined with specific scores. That will be a clear motivation for each student to try.
Students need to focus on solidly learning basic knowledge before advancing. In addition, they must allocate time reasonably, maintain discipline so that each lesson is effective" - Ms. Hong Minh emphasized.

The female teacher also believes that timely coordination between schools and families is one of the effective solutions to closely monitor and encourage students' spirits. Ms. Hong Minh always emphasizes the important companion role of parents in the learning and growth process of students.
The family can be strict but also needs to sympathize and understand the children. That will make the children feel care, create motivation to try harder and develop further" - the female teacher emphasized.
