ILA and its 30-year journey contributing to changing the future of over 1 million students.

(Dan Tri Newspaper) - With over 1 million students, thousands of native English-speaking teachers, and 73 centers nationwide, ILA is not only one of the leading educational organizations in Vietnam, but also a place that inspires and nurtures the potential of an entire future generation.

For the past 30 years, ILA has remained steadfast in its mission of " Education that changes lives," not only helping students master English but also equipping them with the skills, mindset, and confidence to integrate and thrive in the modern world.

Starting from a small class for entrepreneurs in 1995, ILA has grown steadily to become a leading educational institution in Vietnam. By 2018, ILA had contributed to changing the future of 1 million students, opening the door to global knowledge integration.

With a network of 73 centers in major cities across the country, ILA provides a modern, friendly, and inspiring learning environment that meets international standards.

ILA's team of over 3,000 teachers and staff are always ready to support students on their journey to acquire knowledge, with 100% of our foreign teachers holding international teaching certifications such as TESOL and CELTA, a testament to our commitment to continuously improving the quality of education.

ILA has helped over 50,000 students achieve Cambridge certificates and supported more than 35,000 students in gaining admission to top universities worldwide in the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, and Singapore. These achievements affirm the educational impact that ILA has made over the past three decades.

From 2000-2005, ILA laid the foundation for a high-quality English language training model with native English-speaking teachers and modern learning methods. From 2011-2018, ILA made its mark by expanding its system to 31 centers and pioneering the ILA Beyond English model – a comprehensive English learning approach.

In 2021, ILA partnered with The Princeton Review to bring its SAT preparation program to Vietnam, opening up opportunities for Vietnamese children to access global education.

ILA understands that being proficient in English alone is not enough; students need to develop comprehensive life skills, global thinking, and problem-solving abilities in a rapidly changing real-world context. By pioneering a shift from purely English-language instruction to an integrated learning approach, ILA has taken a new direction in education: learning English to develop critical thinking.

ILA's curriculum is built on a competency framework, focusing on developing essential skills:

Effective communication: Helps students confidently express their ideas, persuade, and convey their viewpoints.

Critical thinking: Equipping students with the ability to analyze and evaluate problems creatively and profoundly.

Collaboration skills: Develop teamwork, communication, and coordination skills in a diverse environment.

Creativity and problem-solving: Encouraging the search for innovative solutions to new challenges.

Technological knowledge: Helps students quickly grasp and master technology in the digital age.

Self-improvement potential : Students are trained in self-awareness and personal development.

ILA is constantly innovating and aspires to spread sustainable educational values. Through the ILA Speak Up English talent and public speaking competition, thousands of students have demonstrated groundbreaking thinking, proposing sustainable initiatives for fields such as education, healthcare , and technology, making a strong impression on the judges and the community.

Beyond the classroom, ILA also makes a positive impact on society through its deeply humane community programs. From building bridges for local communities in Nam Tra My to upgrading school facilities in the mountainous region of Yen Minh, Ha Giang, each project carries a message of sharing and spreading love.

For 30 years of building and development, ILA has become a trusted companion for millions of Vietnamese families. Many parents, who were once ILA students, now continue to entrust their children to ILA, creating a strong bond between generations. ILA opens the door to knowledge, accompanying each student on their journey to maturity and confidently stepping out into the world.

"Three decades – a journey steeped in aspirations and leaving a lasting mark. But for ILA, 30 years is not a stopping point, but the beginning of a new journey, full of challenges and opportunities," an ILA representative emphasized.

With a solid foundation built on experience, continuous innovation, and a passion for spreading knowledge, ILA is committed to continuing to open doors to the future, providing opportunities for holistic development for millions of Vietnamese students, and helping them continue to realize their dreams of reaching out to the world.
