Learners will develop integrated language skills during the course and will be able to speak, listen, read and write intermediate-level Vietnamese by the end of the course.  

In this course, students are really on board to S-shaped country. This immersion journey is bringing students to Vietnamese families, parties, ceremonies, festivals, offices, schools, factories, shops, hospitals and historical cultural sites. Students will practise the language in very real situations which help to raise their awareness of Vietnamese language, practice, customs, history and all socio-economic aspects. Higher language skills such as asking for permission, hiring services, arguing, and so on will be developed. Students will learn more complicated sentence structures and expressions. Writing skills will be much enhanced, and students will be able to write a 300-word essay on given topics by the end of the course.
