Passionate about creativity for beloved students

destined for the profession

Sharing about the profession of "cultivating people", Ms. Luyen Thi Van confided: In her family in Yen Dinh district, Thanh Hoa province, no one is a teacher. At first, she forced herself to study Pedagogy just to please her parents. However, during the 4 years of studying at Vinh University, receiving dedicated and thoughtful teaching from teachers who are good at their profession, she promised herself that she would strive to become an exemplary teacher in the future.

After graduating, she was assigned to teach at Quynh Thang A Primary School in 2003, and in 2008 was transferred to Quynh Tam Primary School until now. The teaching profession has many unique hardships, but every day looking at the innocent, pure faces and natural smiles of the children, she feels extremely loved.

With the belief that teaching must be done with all the love for students and using that as a source of motivation to constantly research, create, and innovate appropriate educational methods to achieve the best results, she is often close to and understands the psychology and learning capacity of each group of students to determine goals and propose methods of imparting knowledge and good lessons to them. At the same time, she also focuses on choosing teaching aids and equipment combined with applying information technology to design games, study sheets, use images, videos... in a diverse and vivid way, arousing students' interest and enthusiasm in building lessons.

With the desire to help generations of students improve, every day, Ms. Van always tries to help them realize the value and joy in learning and practicing. To do this, in addition to planning and designing lessons, she also values ​​the skills of evaluating, praising or guiding students to carry out the requirements of learning activities; because this is considered a decisive factor in the quality of teaching and learning. Just like that, she puts all her heart and soul into each letter and calculation with her students.

In particular, Ms. Van is always dedicated to guiding and instructing students down to every period and comma. Outside of class, she often chats with students to create intimacy and shorten the distance between her and her students.

At the same time, Ms. Van also actively participated in observing classes, giving comments, evaluating and supporting colleagues in developing lessons. In particular, she considered guiding teachers in the school to compete for excellent teachers at the provincial and district levels and implementing topics as a responsibility to the profession.
