"For the devoted learner" - The sacred mission of a teacher

Education is not only a journey of imparting knowledge but also arousing the potential, dreams and aspirations in each learner. There, the teacher is not simply a person who imparts knowledge but also a bright light, a companion who helps students confidently overcome challenges. With the philosophy of "Education is lighting", Dai Nam University (DNU) has identified "For the dedicated learner" as the core cultural value, the guiding principle for all activities and decisions of the University.

Why is "For dedicated learners" the guiding principle of DNU?

Dr. Le Dac Son - the captain who always strives to create a quality, safe, and comprehensive learning environment for generations of students.

Dr. Le Dac Son - Chairman of the School Council, affirmed: "For dedicated learners is not only the sacred commitment of the teacher but also the commitment of the entire school, from the Board of Directors to each staff member. Every student entering the school is welcomed and wholeheartedly supported so that they not only study well but also develop comprehensively, confidently facing challenges in life and the labor market..."

Talking about the reason for choosing “For dedicated learners” as the guiding principle for all activities and decisions of DNU, Dr. Le Dac Son said:

Each student is a unique individual with different personalities, dreams and potentials. "Dedicated to learners" means seeing and respecting those differences, helping each student maximize their abilities, so that they have a solid foundation for their long-term development journey.

Because dedicated learners are the guiding principle in all activities and decisions of DNU.

Not only focusing on teaching knowledge, “For the dedicated learner” also means caring for mental health, training soft skills and career orientation for students. The school wants each student to not only have professional knowledge but also have the courage and skills to confidently step into life, ready to face all challenges.

It is a sacred commitment from the head of the school…

At Dai Nam, “For dedicated learners” is to create a friendly, positive learning environment where students are free to express themselves and are encouraged to continuously improve. Every class and activity is an opportunity for students to explore, practice and develop, clearly seeing the value and purpose of their learning journey.

Even to the lowest level employees.

And when "For the students with all our heart" becomes the guiding principle, each staff and lecturer is also guided by that spirit. Each teacher at Dai Nam constantly improves and strives, ready to support students not only in their studies but also in their lives, so that students always feel that they have a dedicated companion, a solid support on their journey to maturity.

Where there is love, there is power.

In particular, when implementing "For dedicated learners," Dai Nam University not only improves training quality but also builds trust and pride from generations of students, alumni and society.

The responsibility and sacred mission of a teacher

There are no bad students, only teaching methods that are not suitable for students.

In his message to teachers, Dr. Le Dac Son shared: We are the ones who shoulder the noble mission of training the future generations of the country. At Dai Nam University, teachers not only impart knowledge but also light the fire, transmit enthusiasm and motivation for students to be determined to complete their study and training programs.

Whatever is harmful to the learner, no matter how small, must be resolutely not done; whatever is good for the learner, must be done with all one's heart and soul.

“I am proud to work with teachers and colleagues. I appreciate the dedication, each person's efforts, each person's work helps build Dai Nam University step by step to what it is today. I hope that Dai Nam teachers will keep that flame of enthusiasm and pass it on to their generations of students. Whatever is harmful to students, no matter how small, we will resolutely not do; whatever is good for students, we will do our best. There are no weak students, only inappropriate teaching methods. Let's leave the hustle and bustle of life outside the school gate, every day at school is a happy day, a useful day, a day in which both teachers and students learn new things. Where there is love, there is strength. Together we will build a safe - loving - sharing living, working and learning environment. Just like that, step by step, we will realize Dai Nam University's vision - Becoming the top choice of students…”

Together, step by step, we will realize the vision of Dai Nam University - To become the top choice of learners...

He further emphasized: " Devoted to the students" is a sacred commitment that teachers must fulfill throughout their lives. When we are dedicated to our students, we not only help them achieve success in their studies but also help them mature and confidently enter life. And when we light up the future for our students, we ourselves also receive great happiness and fulfill our destiny..."

What do Dai Nam teachers say about the mission of Dedicated Students?

Assoc.Prof.Dr. Hoang Duc Hanh – Head of Faculty of Medicine.

Sharing his views on "For the dedicated learner", Associate Professor, Dr. Hoang Duc Hanh - Dean of the Faculty of Medicine said: "In the field of medicine and pharmacy, "For the dedicated learner" is also the responsibility of the teacher in imparting lessons on medical ethics and compassion. I want students to not only be good at their profession but also feel the value of the profession, ready to work for the health of the community. This is the mission that I always preserve and convey to generations of my students."

Dr. Le The Anh - Head of the Accounting Department shared: "For dedicated learners" each student is an independent individual with all the abilities to learn, work and create, so we need to create a suitable environment for them to develop their abilities. That environment is specifically shown through each lecture of teachers in an attractive way, always engaging and encouraging students to develop in their own way. We need to constantly strive to work and create so that every day when students come to school, they feel the love that melts the dormant hearts to shine.."

Dr. Tran Hai Duong - Head of the Korean Language and Culture Department said: "For me, "For dedicated learners" is not only about teaching knowledge, but also about helping students be confident in life. Dedicated means being ready to support them in non-professional aspects such as life skills and problem-solving ability. I always hope that they will grow up with confidence and a sense of responsibility."

"For dedicated learners" is to create an environment where students feel motivated and constantly encouraged. I understand that, in addition to knowledge, they also need encouragement and guidance to be confident on the path they have chosen," said MSc. Le Van Phong - Lecturer of the Faculty of Information Technology.

"The motto 'For the students with all our heart' reminds us of the importance of every action, no matter how small, from supporting administrative procedures to consulting and guiding students. Whenever students encounter problems, we always try to create conditions and resolve them promptly so that they can study and develop with peace of mind." Mr. Nguyen Van Hieu - Deputy Head of the Administration Department shared.

Ms. Pham Dieu Thuy - Student Affairs Department Specialist confided: "For dedicated learners" is not only a job, but also a motivation for us to do everything best for students. We are always ready to support them not only in studying but also in life issues, so that every student feels that Dai Nam is their second home."

Dr. Pham Thi Hong Phuong - DNU Psychological Support Center: "For me, 'For dedicated learners' is a commitment to accompany students through all difficulties, from academic stress to personal problems. We always try to build a safe space where students can share their stories without fear of judgment."

Mr. Tran Huy Viet - Dormitory Manager: "In the dormitory, we take care of living conditions so that students feel most comfortable and secure. The motto 'For the students with all our heart' helps us understand that our responsibility is not only to manage but also to serve and care for students so that they always have a healthy and friendly living environment."

The sharing from the department staff is a testament to the spirit of "Devoted to students" at Dai Nam, where every employee considers students as the center and always strives to bring the best learning and living environment for them.
