Global Success - A powerful series of books to support English language teaching in the digital age.

(Dan Tri Newspaper) - The Global Success English textbook series, along with its synchronized digital resource system, is expected to contribute effectively to the implementation of the policy of making English the second language of Vietnam.

The Prime Minister has approved the project "Making English the second language in schools in the period 2025-2035, with a vision to 2045," aiming for widespread use of English.

In the spirit of the 2018 General Education Program, textbooks and digital learning materials are becoming an ecosystem that accompanies teachers, guiding students' learning process towards developing competencies, personalization, and adaptability to each classroom context. The Global Success English textbook series and its synchronized digital resource system are a prime example of this approach.

The textbook series meets the 4Cs skill set for students.

According to Ms. Nguyen Thanh Ngoc, a teacher at Gia Loc High School ( Hai Phong ), the Global Success English textbook series is different with its modern approach to language learning, closely linked to practical applications. Teaching experience shows that the series not only provides quality learning materials but also contributes to the comprehensive development of students' abilities according to the 2018 General Education Program, especially the 4Cs skills: Critical Thinking, Creativity, Communication, and Collaboration.

Teachers share positive experiences with the Global Success English textbook and the GlobalSpeak app – a powerful duo supporting English language teaching in the digital age.

The textbooks are systematically and scientifically compiled, suitable for each student's level. However, for English to be effectively implemented in schools, teachers need to continue innovating teaching methods and improving their skills, and a synchronized digital resource ecosystem accompanying the textbooks is a crucial direction.

Digital applications "Vietnamese-ize" the English learning model according to international standards.

Ms. Pham Thi Linh Chi, an English teacher and Head of the English Department at Ly Thuong Kiet Secondary School (Bo De Ward, Hanoi), said: “What impressed me most was the consistency and clear pedagogical orientation of the accompanying learning resource ecosystem. This is not just a single digital tool, but a system of solutions supporting the innovation of English teaching towards competency development.”

Within that ecosystem, the GlobalSpeak application stands out as a comprehensive educational technology solution developed by Hanoi Education Investment and Development Joint Stock Company (a member unit of Vietnam Education Publishing House), closely following the Global Success English textbook program. Utilizing AI, speech recognition, and instant feedback, it helps students learn anytime, anywhere, according to their individual abilities – in line with the "lifelong learning" spirit of the new education program.

Ms. Pham Thi Linh Chi teaches using modern methods, applying technology and increasing interaction to improve learning effectiveness.

For teachers, GlobalSpeak helps shift the role from transmitting information to guiding it, providing detailed learning data to track progress, identify students' strengths and weaknesses, and tailor teaching to be more personalized and effective.

From a professional perspective, Ms. Linh Chi noted that Global Success English has a modern philosophy, a high degree of integration, is built on the Global English Proficiency Assessment Scale (GSE), is compatible with the CEFR and the 2018 general education curriculum orientation, thereby contributing to the "Vietnamization" of the English learning model according to international standards.

Parent 's perspective

Not only teachers, but also parents have noted the change in how students learn English thanks to digital applications.

Ms. Tran Anh Van, a parent with a child studying at Trung Hoa Primary School (Hanoi), said that Global Success English, combined with the GlobalSpeak application, creates a synchronized learning package, offering a new, enriching, and inspiring way to learn a foreign language.

Ms. Tran Anh Van is a parent whose child is attending Trung Hoa Primary School (Yen Hoa Ward, Hanoi).

According to Ms. Van, GlobalSpeak simultaneously meets three important requirements of modern education: innovating teaching methods with an interactive learning environment, providing engaging and effective AI-powered pronunciation training and feedback; innovating testing and evaluation by applying AI to objectively and transparently assess listening and speaking skills, allowing parents to monitor their children's progress; and simultaneously developing digital skills and self-learning habits, helping students proactively set goals, study regularly, and become more confident in communication.

"The most valuable thing is that my child is no longer afraid of English, but finds it familiar, interesting, and useful," Ms. Van shared.

In the context of Vietnam's move towards the regular use of English in schools, ecosystems combining textbooks, digital resources, and AI applications such as Global Success English and GlobalSpeak demonstrate a new approach to teaching, learning, and assessment. However, these solutions still require enhanced infrastructure support and teacher training to be effective.
