I’m Hoang Minh Huy from United States of America. I have been teaching in Vietnam for 3 years. Prior to Vietnam, I taught in Cambodia and Philippines. My first visited Vietnam in 2010, and since then I have traveled from PhuQuoc to Ha Long Bay, and almost everywhere in between. My favorite place is Da Lat City because of the cool weather, mountains, trees, and flowers. In my free time, I enjoy long rides on my motorbike, walking on the beaches, and traveling. I really enjoy teaching in Vietnam. The English language helps create opportunities for people for advancements and success in life.

It didn't take long for me and two friends, who had also worked for the same airline, to decide to put together an 8 day... [Read more]
