“Experiencing Vietnamese culture is something I am truly excited about. Even though I have only learned a few Vietnamese phrases, I can already feel the hospitality, friendliness, and positive energy from the students. The exchange activities, dancing, singing, and the learning environment at HUTECH have left me with wonderful impressions. I believe this will be a memorable experience in my journey,” shared Jesefine, a student from Dania Academy.
