It is known that this summer, teachers and volunteer students here have coordinated with the Hung Thanh Commune Youth Union to open 3 free classes for children.

The first class opened at the end of May, mainly teaching Math and Vietnamese; the remaining two classes opened a week ago, focusing on teaching English. Among the three teachers taking turns teaching the class, there is a female teacher currently teaching in the South and two students from Vinh University, all three are children of Hung Thanh commune.

Right from the time the Math class “opened”, many parents in the commune brought their children to study. Later, due to the great need for knowledge enrichment of children in the locality, volunteers opened 2 more free classes.

At first, teaching only took place in the mornings, but later, new classes were added, and teaching activities in Dong Trach took place both in the morning and in the afternoon. Although these were only free classes, the volunteer teachers organized them quite carefully, from choosing appropriate teaching methods, preparing lessons and lesson plans, to teaching and organizing attractive and engaging games...

Teacher Nguyen Thi Tinh, who works in Binh Duong, shared: “Every time I return to my hometown during the summer break, I often participate in opening free classes for children in the village. With this activity, I hope to help the children in some way; contributing to encouraging the love of learning movement in my hometown.”

Thanks to free classes with the spirit of "contributing more knowledge to the children of our hometown", the learning movement of children in Hung Thanh commune has changed a lot and received high approval from parents.

Nguyen Thi Nhu Quynh, a fourth-year student from the English Language Department at Vinh University, shared: “For the past four years, every summer I have taught for free in my hometown. I feel very happy to participate in this activity. In addition to helping children learn English, I also get practical experience, practice my skills and gain experience for myself.”

Talking about these free classes, Mr. Dao Quang Ninh - Secretary of the Youth Union of Hung Thanh commune said: "After a period of operation, it shows that the free teaching of volunteer teachers and students in Dong Trach has a very practical meaning, attracting a large number of children in the commune to participate.
