Request to stop "underground" teaching
Through inspection, the provincial Department of Education and Training found that the organization and operation of foreign language centers and foreign language - information technology centers in the province still have some shortcomings, problems and violations as mentioned above.
The main reason is that the centers have not carefully studied the documents and have not strictly implemented the provisions of the law; do not clearly understand the process and procedures for registering for a license to teach foreign languages; and have not been inspected, reminded, or disciplined by competent authorities.
The Department of Education and Training of Binh Dinh province requests that foreign language centers and foreign language - information technology centers promptly correct shortcomings and report implementation results to the Department of Education and Training within 30 days of receiving the notice.
Request individuals who are organizing English classes at 132 Ham Nghi Street to remove the signboard "TEA ENGLISH ACADEMY" and stop teaching English until they are allowed to operate.
The provincial Department of Education and Training also assigned specialized and professional departments to strengthen inspection and guidance on expertise and profession so that foreign language centers and foreign language - information technology centers in the province can comply with regulations. The Department Inspectorate was assigned to monitor, urge and inspect the implementation of relevant parties.
