Einsatzstelle: Thong Hoc Phu Thuong/Phu Thuong Primary School
The aim of the program is to provide an English language speaking environment for children to practice and improve their confidence in using a foreign language in communication.
The Phu Thung primary school is situated in the Tay Hô district of central Hanoi; just close to West Lake. The local area has many cafés and charming shops in the neighborhood. You can have relaxing walks with fresh ice-cream in the warmer afternoons. Phu Thuong Primary School is one of many public primary schools in Hanoi.
There are about 1,200 children aged between 6 and 11 years old who start learning English and French at grade 1 (6 years old). Teachers and children had not had many chances to meet and talk with foreigners until VPV sent its volunteers to help there.
There are 40 teachers, of which two are English teachers and two French teachers. English teachers are in charge of 15 classes and their lessons are more crowded, with about 40- 50 students per class. Meanwhile there are only 2 French classes with 30 students per class.
