October highlights at UEH English Zone

29 Oct, 2024

Last October, the UEH English Park became an interesting destination for UEH students of all levels and systems—a place where they can relax and practice their English skills after intense study hours. With a variety of diverse and creative activities, UEH English Zone has created a lively atmosphere, helping students comfortably practice English to share and learn from each other. Let's look back at the memorable moments of this October and continue to accompany the English Park in the upcoming activities!

EZ starts October off with the flavor of coffee

Kicking off October for UEH English Zone is the EZ Talks event themed Coffegan, inspired by International Coffee Day (October 1st). "Coffegan" is a combination of Coffee and Vegan - for coffee lovers and those who choose vegan options. The commonality between coffee and veganism is that both do not stop at food and beverages; in Vietnam, they are also a way of life. At this EZ Talks session, you will share your insights about coffee, your experiences with vegetarianism, and the meaning behind these everyday foods and beverages.

Sharing the same idea The Student Union - Student Association of the Faculty of Foreign Languages (SFL) organized the ECOFF "International Coffee Day" event to explore coffee culture and the interesting stories surrounding this beloved beverage. Join the program, where you can savor cups of coffee while discussing modern coffee trends, including the combination of coffee with unique and creative ingredients.

"She" - The beautiful half of the world

In order to convey love and affection to Vietnamese women on this special day, the Speaking Group Extended: Generation event by the BELL English Club and the EZ Talks - DIY Crafting Queens activity provided an opportunity for participants to personally write cards to send encouraging messages to the women they love, through beautiful flower baskets and cards, gifts made by themselves at the English Zone.

Let's reflect on the style and lifestyle of Gen Z

Not stopping there, UEH English Zone also brings a fresh breeze to the English space at UEH through the Speaking Group Extended program: Vibe Check, where you can share and discuss your own lifestyle, a place where diverse lifestyles intersect. Alongside the EZ Talks: Euphoria to share students' thoughts on what constitutes true happiness in today's fast-paced world. The students emphasized that happiness is not just a destination but a continuous process involving self-discovery and growth. The discussion also addressed common misconceptions about happiness, such as the belief that happiness is only related to grades or academic success. Wrapping up October, the English club organized a unique event called EZ Talks: EZ say hi, where a large number of eager students gathered to discuss the topic of music and idols, a universal theme to make friends while improving their English skills.

The new arrival of new Boardgames

EZ Board Game has always been an activity that attracts a large number of UEH students. In October, EZ launched a new board game called "Cover Your Assets" which requires players to use skill and strategy to accumulate wealth and protect it from opponents who want to steal it. Which student will best demonstrate their "economic" prowess to build wealth and become a millionaire the fastest? Besides Cover your Assets, national board games like Taboo, Mondrawsity, Secret H, etc., also do not fall behind and still attract the participation of many UEH students. Not only entertaining, board games are games for you to practice strategic thinking and communication skills. EZ Talks and Boardgames help participants share humorous stories and personal experiences during the game, thereby improving their English communication skills. The cheerful and interactive atmosphere made the game more memorable than ever.

The activities this October not only focus on practicing English but also encourage creativity and connection among students. The discussion sessions, interactive games, and DIY workshops attracted a large number of participants, providing valuable experiences for everyone.
