English Club Celebration at University of Technology Bach Khoa

After the one week Independence Day break where most students from provincial areas went back to the province, we were back together again. This time, our club have been invited to another English club!! My friends, Thuy and Truong form vovinam marital art classes were excited to know that I am running an English club and they would like to see how our club is run. But turned out that their meeting will come up earlier than us, so my club went down over to the meeting instead. Turn out that it was their 1 year anniversary! I am so happy for them course they are officially one year old! Our club is still fledging and coming.. haha but i am sure we will improve over time too! : )

ANd today, we decided to adopt the slogan : Dare to Speak!
course this is really an eye opener for all of us. Oh My GOd! the people from technological unviersity have better english than studnets from Humanities school. It might be the common preception, but there is no reason why our club members cant speak as good english as them.. so that is why I am really glad we have agreed to come today. Seeing how everyone is so confident of themselves only prove to our members that they can do it too!

JIA YOU! Co Len ( vietnamese)! Add Oil!

It was a nice experience to be invited to Bach Khoa's Information of Technology English Club , this club has had a 1 year history and we got a slide show of the many activities they had in the past, such as plays, discussions and so on, in hope of gaining a cultural experience, as well as to reach a commendable level of English. Made many new friends along the way, interacting with them on ideas to improve the club. Also noticed that they had many students who attended their anniversary, further emphasizing the desire for Vietnamese students to step out of their natural comfort zone and move towards an improvement in self abilities in areas outside of Vietnam. Such was the desire to learn English.

An invitation to share our thoughts on the club. Basically we felt the club is really successful and has come a long way from its humble beginnings to what it is today, attracting many different students who have a key interest in learning English as well as in cultural exchanges, skills that can benefit them a great deal in future.
