Van Lang University Students Organize an Outstanding Learning Event

The ability to communicate ideas clearly, persuasively, and engagingly is considered a key to success in many areas of life. Recognizing the need for young people to hone their public speaking skills, on July 11, 2024, the 3N Club - NGHE NGHĨ NÓI (LISTEN THINK SPEAK) of Van Lang University organized the workshop “Public Speaking - The Art of Public Speaking,” featuring guest speakers from Saigon Tếu.

VLU students put a great deal of effort into organizing the event. Students from the Faculty of Public Relations and Communications invested “heavily” in the scale of events both within and outside the university, leveraging their specialized strengths.

“Học ăn, học nói, học gói, học mở" (Learning to eat, speak, wrap, and open). On July 11, 2024, VLU students had a practical lesson on the art of public speaking with esteemed guests from Saigon Tếu: Phương Nam, Stephen Turban, Minh Ti, host Uy Lê, and "boss" An Trương from the Xin Việc series, which has recently gained significant attention on social media. This event was meticulously organized by the members of the 3N Club - NGHE NGHĨ NÓI (LISTEN THINK SPEAK) of Van Lang University, with careful preparation down to the smallest details.

Originating from the “Art of Public Speaking” course for Course 29 of the Honors Program in Public Relations, and with the support of lecturers Ms. Đỗ Thị Thanh Trúc and Mr. Trần Quang Thiện, the students were connected with host Uy Lê. This connection helped fulfill their desire to expand this special class with the workshop “Public Speaking - The Art of Public Speaking.”

Through the practical experiences shared by the speakers, VLU students gained new perspectives on how to handle different public speaking situations, suitable for various venues, audience sizes, and the speaker's mood. Beyond the pressure of the stage and the pressure to deliver a perfect speech, young people should cherish the somewhat “messy” experiences and develop the skills to turn these ordinary but genuine moments into stories that connect with the audience and convey meaningful messages about life.

In addition to lessons on effective public speaking, the workshop “Public Speaking - The Art of Public Speaking” offered Văn Lang students the opportunity to develop various skills and experience professional event organization. Being given the chance to “produce” real programs and events while still in school will help enhance the image of Văn Lang students in the eyes of employers, showcasing their extensive experience, confidence, and readiness to handle real-world situations in their well-trained fields.
