and level appropriate) and images or any other material/visual aids that would benefit the students in their learning process
 Keep in mind that providing students with the proper scaffolding & differentiation is very important to Vinschool
 We aim to provide students with a variety of tasks that result in plenty of opportunities for lower level, average level and higher level students within the same class to
engage as often as possible.
 Pearson’s Gold Experience A2 or Stage Foundation 2 as we call it, aims to prepare the students for the Cambridge KET exams.
 At Vinschool, we seek to empower students to lead and therefore, we aim to create as many opportunities for students to speak up in the class and have peer-to-peer
interaction instead of just listening to the teacher speak the majority of the time
 In the ESL Department, we aim to provide teachers with the freedom to create content that is in line with the Vinschool vision, mission and values and achieves the desired
learning outcomes within the official Cambridge Curriculum
 The mission of Vinschool is to nurture students to develop their talents and skills to be responsible, success-oriented citizens who contribute to the ongoing improvement of
their local, national and international communities.
