Vietnam is well on its way to integrate with the world and for that reason emphasis on English language skills has become very essential.
Recently, the City Department of Education and Training decided to recruit foreign native English speakers to teach in elementary, middle and high schools in Vietnam.
The policy calls for social contributions to improve English language teaching from primary schools to senior high schools by employing only foreign native English teachers. Each student will chip in VND120,000 (US$5.8) a month to cover the $35 an hour salary of the foreign teacher.
Compared to traditional English teaching methodology, it is better that thousands of students in the City have a chance of practicing listening and speaking skills with native English speakers, who create a more exciting atmosphere in classrooms for students.
