Meet the Thai student who won first prize in Literature in the province

Meeting Lu Thi Cam Thach one afternoon after school, our first impression was that she had a small figure, a soft and simple voice, and her face could not hide her happiness when she received the results of the provincial excellent student exam for the 2018-2019 school year.

Born into a farming family in the ancient Thai village of Hoa Tien, Chau Tien commune, Quy Chau. Her family is near-poor, her parents only work in the fields all year round, and when the harvest is over, they go into the forest to pick bamboo shoots to sell to support her and her two sisters' education. Although the family's life is difficult, her parents do not let her and her two siblings drop out of school, both of them are very diligent and obedient. During her primary school years, Thach was always an excellent student, achieving the title of Uncle Ho's Good Nephew.

Weekends are the time I spend with my sister, carefully writing each word and helping her with difficult math problems. Thach becomes a good example for her.

In the 6th grade entrance exam for the 2015-2016 school year, Thach applied to Quy Chau Secondary School for Ethnic Minorities with the hope of finding the most favorable learning environment to nurture his dreams and ambitions and at the same time share some of the difficulties with his parents.

And that year, Thach passed the exam to enter the boarding school with a very high score. From now on, her parents no longer need to worry about any expenses and tuition fees. But from then on, this small student had to temporarily leave her parents and younger sister to go to a new school, to live an independent life.

Cam Thach is always guided by her Literature teacher in every word in each article.

Coming to a new school, knowing so many strange things, not yet familiar with the new life, but right from the first days of entering grade 6, with the attention from teachers, Thach easily adapted and strived to pursue her passion. During all 4 years of studying, Thach achieved excellent results in all areas. In particular, this Thai student was also selected to be in the team participating in the provincial excellent student competition in Literature. Thach is a student that teachers and friends have high hopes for.

Understanding his situation, the school and teachers always support him both materially and spiritually. The teachers have put all their knowledge and enthusiasm into each class. And Thach has not let his family, teachers, friends and those who have placed their trust in him down. In the recent provincial excellent student competition, Thach excellently won first prize in Literature with a very high score.

Although my family's circumstances are still difficult and my mother has to work far away, I have never been afraid of hardship or suffering.

Not only is Thach a top student in Literature, he is also admired by his friends for his consistency and consistency in all subjects. When asked about the secret to studying Literature well - one of the subjects that requires high writing and argumentation skills, Thach said: "I have a strange passion for Literature, even though I know that this is a subject that, in addition to being confident in knowledge, also requires good writing skills and emotions.

Through each lecture of the teachers, I always pay attention, transform myself into the characters of the stories to feel. Read more reference books and especially I spend a lot of time practicing writing the topics given by the teachers, learn more on social networks about sample essays, good word usage and from there draw experiences for myself.

“Cam Thach is a student whose family circumstances are difficult compared to her friends. But on the contrary, Thach has an outstanding point which is diligence and perseverance in every subject and every class hour. Especially with Literature, Thach has spent a lot of time on his passion. Through many years of directly teaching Thach, I see that she is an admirable student because of her will and determination.”

Every weekend when I come home, I try to help my parents with feeding the pigs and gardening.

“My family’s circumstances are difficult, and my mother is currently working far away to earn money to support the family. So my wish now is to study well to pass the entrance exam to a provincial boarding school, and continue to nurture my dream of becoming a literature teacher.”
