Academic Vietnamese is a standard training program for learners who wish to pursue well-balanced Vietnamese language proficiency to facilitate their future Vietnamese studies. The program is organized from beginning to advanced levels, maximizing learners’ ability to use Vietnamese in all four key areas: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. The learner’s language goals will be achieved naturally and confidently in an energetic and creative environment. An assessment system is an integral part of the program. It includes daily quizzes, homework, assignments, mid-terms and final tests.

The program can be conducted intensively, which is suitable for short study abroad programs. The content and curriculum of a 2-month intensive course at VLS are comparable to 2 semesters of a college Vietnamese language course. VLS is currently taking care of Vietnamese academic training for CET Academic Programs and GUAVA-VASI, two US-based study abroad programs.
In addition, VLS also helps to arrange with the field experts as guest lecturers/speakers in Vietnamese linguistics, literature, culture, society, etc.
