Grand Park Vinser's Voice
Hoang Thi Giang Thanh – 10B1
ART SUBJECT STAR AWARD
My approach to learning is driven by passion and perseverance. I'm committed to pursuing my dreams and overcoming any obstacles that come my way. Art, being one of my passions, has played a significant role in my personal growth. I've actively participated in school art activities to hone my skills. Last year was filled with new experiences and valuable lessons, particularly about the importance of diligence. I'm grateful for the support of my homeroom teacher, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Ha. Looking ahead, I'm excited to set new goals and work even harder to achieve them.
Nguyen Le Bao Ha – 7B1
MATH SUBJECT STAR AWARD
For me, to study math well, I must truly enjoy and find it interesting. Especially, I have to pay close attention to the teacher's lecture in class because with this subject, if I don't understand one part, it can cause difficulties in many subsequent parts. In addition, if I like it and want to know more about the types of problems, I can look for exercises on advanced math problems, and once I have mastered the types of problems, doing math will become much more interesting and easier. I am also always ready to help my friends with their homework because it will help me remember the formulas and understand the lesson better. But if I study too much in a "cramming" way, it is very difficult to understand the lesson, I should only study when I feel really comfortable and want to learn, then I will remember the lesson very quickly and for a long time, understand deeply about the lesson I have learned.
Pham Nguyen Quynh Thy – 12A3
MATH SUBJECT STAR AWARD
To study math well, first of all, you must have a passion for math and especially you must really invest in math. My secret to studying well is simply to pay close attention to the teacher's lecture in class, this is often overlooked but is extremely important in understanding the nature of each problem. When you have a clear understanding of the nature, solving the problem will be much easier. There is a very good secret that I learned is to re-explain the lesson to other friends, re-explaining the lesson helps me understand and remember deeper the lessons I have done.
Nguyen Hoang Viet Bach – 7A6
MATH SUBJECT STAR AWARD
My sharing about learning secrets is that I should study at times when my mind is free of worries and I feel most ready. When reviewing for exams, I should review and look over all the content I have learned for at least 1 to 2 weeks before the exam. Especially, I myself must really try and focus as much as possible on what I have learned to complete the exam with the best results.
Tran Thi Chau Ngan – 12A3
LITERATURE SUBJECT STAR AWARD
My three habits for excelling in literature are as follows:
Reading for Pleasure: Rather than forcing myself to memorize facts from textbooks, I prioritize reading materials that genuinely interest me. Exploring topics that pique my curiosity allows me to stimulate both my intellect and emotions.
Open Dialogue: Engaging in regular discussions about literature, life, and various perspectives with teachers and friends is essential. I value the opportunity to exchange ideas, challenge my own thoughts, and broaden my understanding.
Cultivating Personal Voice: I believe literature is a powerful medium for self-expression. By infusing my writing with my unique personality, I deepen my connection to the subject matter. This continuous process of self-discovery through writing enhances my appreciation for literature.
These three habits have made the study of literature an enjoyable and enriching experience for me.
Phan Thien Quan – 7B3
ART SUBJECT STAR AWARD
I've been eagerly anticipating each new school year, especially my art classes. Drawing feels like watching a colorful ballet unfold on the canvas. Ms. Phuong Thanh, my art teacher, has been instrumental in my artistic growth. She infuses her lessons with deep meaning, inspiring us to create artwork that goes beyond the surface. As a student, I strive to be an active participant, fully engaging in each class and completing all assignments.
Tran Minh Nhu Ngoc – 7A7
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
I am extremely happy and feel very honored to receive the OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD in my first year at this beloved school. I am really surprised by this result because I don't have any secret. I just think and do simply following the sentence: "Study hard, play hard". With studying, I always pay attention to listening to lectures in class, complete all assigned homework and actively participate in group learning. For playing, to achieve a table tennis medal, I practice diligently and focus on achieving high results in competition. To achieve this result, I would like to thank my parents and teachers for creating the best conditions for me in both studying and playing.
Pham Dang Khoa – 7A8
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
To study more effectively, I will share some of the following learning secrets. First, I manage my study and rest time appropriately so as not to overwork myself. Second, I create a learning environment to be able to focus to the maximum and not be affected by other factors. Third, I focus on listening to lectures in class and do all the assigned homework and ask the teacher if there is something I don't understand. Finally, to consolidate knowledge, I have to review before the exam and not wait until the day of the exam to review.
Pham Tien Dat – 7B1

Tran Phu Hai – 7A8
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
For me, to achieve good results in any subjects, the most important thing is that you need to pay full attention in class time. When teachers deliver lessons, I diligently take notes and make sure I clearly understand the materials. After every lesson, I usually spend time to review and do exercises to reinforce what I have been taught. Beside that, researching and exploring related topics also deepens my interested in the subjects.
Phan Hoang Nha Uyen – 7B1
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD & ENGLISH SUBJECT STAR AWARD

Focus on listening in class. Take detailed notes and ask your teachers any questions you don't understand;
Review the lesson after each class;
At home, study for 25 minutes and then take a 5-minute break;
Turn off all distractions like your phone, social media, etc;
Organize your tasks effectively;
Finally, don't wait until the last minute to study.
Tran Thanh Tuyen – 8A4
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
Lenin's timeless adage, "Learn, learn again, learn always," has been a constant source of inspiration for me. It has fueled my determination to excel academically and shape my own destiny. To optimize my learning, I prioritize a calm and focused mindset. Self-directed learning plays a pivotal role in my study routine. Prior to each class, I diligently explore the LMS for self-study materials and reinforce my understanding with online quizzes. During lectures, I actively engage by taking comprehensive notes and integrating the knowledge I've acquired independently. Any lingering doubts are promptly clarified by consulting my teachers or peers. To make the most of my limited class time, I supplement my learning with additional online exercises and consistently complete all assigned homework. For subjects demanding rapid comprehension, I maintain a high level of concentration to ensure immediate grasp of the material, thus avoiding last-minute cramming. Subjects like History and Geography benefit from a thorough understanding developed during class, enabling me to efficiently review using the syllabus and textbooks closer to exam time. I hope my experiences will encourage you to embrace a diligent and persistent approach to your studies. Together, let us cultivate a generation of exceptional individuals who will drive our nation forward.
Pham Gia Phuc – 10B1
OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
The 2024-2025 school year will be a “huge” opportunity to make a breakthrough in your studies, but are you ready?
To have a successful and explosive school year, you can do it the way I did. First, set out very specific goals, for example, one of my goals for this school year is to achieve the title of Vinschool Outstanding Achievement Award. Next, consider the conditions to achieve your goals, with Vinschool Outstanding Achievement Award being an excellent student and an award at the national or international level. Then, based on the conditions, plan and set smaller goals to overcome, such as achieving a score of 9 or higher in all science tests. Finally, you just need to monitor your progress and change your method when necessary. Good luck!!
Nguyen Huy Tuong – 8A3
SPORTS SUBJECT STAR AWARD
The journey to athletic triumph is not a race to the finish line but a lifelong pursuit. Passion fuels the fire within, while unwavering determination steers the course. Like a tree that requires time to grow and blossom, an athlete must cultivate their skills through countless hours of dedication. Success in sports is not a matter of chance but a testament to unwavering hard work. Stumbles along the way are inevitable, but remember that perseverance is the key to unlocking your full potential. Believe in yourself and never let go of your dreams.
Tran Nguyen Khanh Tien – 11A2
SOCIAL SCIENCES SUBJECT STAR AWARD
In the first days at Vinschool, I was exposed to new subjects and knowledge. That took me a long time to get used to it and there were times when I was almost buried in a pile of deadlines. However, I realized that this was also an opportunity for me to try applying different learning methods. I often use methods that help me focus on the subject under time pressure, thanks to which I was able to study more productively and effectively. In addition, the encouragement and enthusiasm of Vinschool teachers also gave me more motivation to continue on my learning path.
Vo Pham Quoc Bao – 11A2
SOCIAL SCIENCES SUBJECT STAR AWARD
I have a favorite saying, “Seeing is believing”. For me, the knowledge I have gained is not only nurtured through the pages of books, but also through the practical experiences I was fortunate to have during my school years. I especially love experiential trips, where I get to see with my own eyes what the books describe, and hold what I have only seen through words. That is the beauty of learning through experiences.
