This school year, 26 grade 10 students of the school learned Chinese instead of English in the program. The school arranges teachers who are well-trained and have teaching experience. In lessons, teachers apply information technology and the "symbol" method of Chinese characters to help students remember new words, sentence patterns and pronunciation more effectively.
Many students expressed their excitement at being able to access new foreign languages. Nguyen Nhat Le, class 10G8, shared: I am very happy to be the first course to learn Chinese from grade 10. This opens up opportunities for university admission or study abroad.
According to Ms. Le Thi Bich - Principal of Dong Ga Primary, Secondary and High School, Chinese is a language with a large number of users, associated with a unique culture and many opportunities for learning and exchanging.

Talking to Lao Dong, Ms. Le Thi Bich said that in addition to opening a Chinese language program, in recent years, the school has actively connected with foreign partners and educational institutions such as Japan to bring the school's students to become trainees, access opportunities to study and work here.
