A WORLD AUTHORITY IN ENGLISH TEACHING
Over the last 75 years, the British Council has established a reputation as a world authority in English language teaching. In designing and delivering our courses, we can draw on the experience and expertise of over 2,000 teachers and a network of almost 100 Teaching Centres in over 50 countries.
The British Council has been operating in Vietnam since 1993 and has Teaching Centres in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Together, these two centres provide courses that are carefully designed to meet the needs of almost 13,000 adult and young learner students every year.

EXPERIENCED AND QUALIFIED TEACHERS
At the British Council, our teachers are all highly qualified ELT professionals with a wealth of international teaching experience.
We expect our teachers to demonstrate a commitment to their own professional development and provide support for this through training, classroom observation and a performance management system that is designed to encourage learning and creativity.
Of course professionalism would be nothing without the passion and dedication that our teachers bring to their work teaching you. If you want to know more, please visit our 'British Council teachers' page.
WELL-DESIGNED COURSES AND QUALITY LEARNING RESOURCES
Our courses are all carefully designed to meet the real-world needs of our students and use the latest teaching and learning resources. Our approach to teaching is student-centred and we make principled use of a range of proven teaching methodologies to make sure that you enjoy and benefit from your course.
British Council students also benefit from learning outside the classroom. Teachers set homework for each lesson, and you also learn how to continue improving your English independently, after your course has finished. All Teaching Centre students and IELTS examination candidates may use our Study Areas, which contain thousands of books for English language self study and IELTS examination practice, as well as computers, and a special children’s book section, all in a comfortable library environment.
STATE OF THE ART LEARNING FACILITIES
As well as qualified and experienced teachers, the British Council is committed to providing you with state of the art premises and the latest in learning resources.
Our classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboard technology in Hanoi and with a computer in HCMC. Teachers have access to wireless laptop computers for use in the classroom. As well as providing instant access to a huge bank of teaching resources, this technology allows us to make use of digital course materials and provide big-screen classroom access to the Internet along with surround sound.
YOUR GATEWAY TO THE BEST OF CONTEMPORARY UK CULTURE, ARTS AND SCIENCE
We are more than just a teaching and exams centre. Our other teams regularly organise cultural events, science lectures and education fairs in Vietnam.
