With the orientation of building a multicultural learning environment and focusing on the comprehensive development of learners’ competencies, Van Lang Saigon College organized an exchange program themed “Discovering Vietnam”, creating a space for connection, learning, and experiential engagement for students studying at the College.

The program was not only a cultural exchange activity but also a highly practical learning experience, helping students enhance their communication, presentation, and teamwork skills, while gaining a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culture and tourism in the context of international integration.
Strengthening Connections – Expanding Cultural Understanding
The program began with networking and interaction activities, providing opportunities for Vietnamese and international students to get acquainted, communicate, and share in an open and friendly atmosphere. Through these interactive activities, students were able to practice intercultural communication skills and build confidence in multicultural environments—an essential competency for their academic journey and future careers.

Experiential Learning – A Dynamic Approach to Vietnamese Culture
The atmosphere of the program was energized through interactive mini games featuring questions about famous destinations, Vietnamese cuisine, and distinctive cultural elements, implemented via modern QR codes. These activities enabled students to approach cultural and tourism knowledge in a light, engaging, and visual manner, while also enhancing participation and enthusiasm.

Students Taking the Lead – Spreading the Value of Knowledge
A highlight of the program was the presentations delivered by three groups of Vietnamese students, introducing Vietnam’s most iconic landscapes and sharing important travel tips, especially for traveling during the Lunar New Year (Tet). Through this activity, students not only strengthened their presentation, synthesis, and information delivery skills, but also demonstrated their role as “cultural ambassadors,” helping students gain a deeper understanding of Vietnam’s land and people.

Practical Insights from Students
The program also featured valuable sharing from students, who provided practical experiences related to traveling in Vietnam, such as accommodation booking tips, personal safety considerations, belongings management, and permission procedures for traveling away from campus. These insights offered high practical value, helping students better prepare for a safe and fulfilling journey while exploring Vietnam.

Spreading Humanistic Educational Values – Accompanying Students’ Growth
At the conclusion of the program, the Organizing Committee expressed sincere gratitude to the accompanying lecturers, particularly Ms. Pham Nguyen Nhat Vy – Lecturer of the Korean Language Program, and Ms. Nguyen Thi Hong Ly – Vice Dean of the Faculty of Foreign Languages, whose guidance and support created favorable conditions for students to fully develop their potential. The program ended in a warm and friendly atmosphere with a commemorative photo session, marking a meaningful learning experience for all participants.
