Therefore, Ánh always sets goals and develops effective methods to avoid boredom in her studies. In particular, she makes the most of her time at school, applying theoretical knowledge to numerous experiments to thoroughly understand and grasp the process of chemical reactions when substances combine.
“During the preparation for the gifted student competition, the school's team also had the opportunity to visit oil refineries, cement factories, and thermal power plants in Nghe An and Thanh Hoa provinces. These practical experiences helped me and my teammates better understand the useful applications of chemistry in industry, creating more enthusiasm for learning and improving our skills,” Anh further shared.
