Huong Giang''s topic
Teachersâ?T Influence
Almost everyone has spent the first part of their lives at school, so their teachers, like their parents, are highly influential to them. The influence may be good or bad but whatever it is, it does contribute to shaping a personâ?Ts personality from his/her early ages.
1. Do you have such an influential teacher in your school time?
If yes, in what way has he/she influenced you?
2. In your opinions, what makes a good teacher?
â?oThe best teacher is the one who teaches by his/her heart, not by his/her books.â?
Do you agree with this statement?
3. Assume you are a university student and your study results are very good. But you are very bad at gymnastics and you have to take a retest. If you fail this retest, you will lose the chance to get the scholarship (Academic results are not enough for a scholarship). Meanwhile, your teacher of gymnastics has the â?oreputationâ? of allowing his students to pass after taking some money. If you ran in*****ch a problem, what would you do? What do you think about the teacher in this case?
4. Looking back at the situation in question 3, do you think this problem is popular in Vietnam nowadays? In your opinion, what factors may badly affect a teacherâ?Ts standards of morality?

Topic this week is abt:
Importance of music to life
Can you imagine how life would be like without sounds? Without music?! For some people, life without music can be quite meaningless. Undeniably music is a part of many peoplê?Ts lives, because the music we hear identifies with our personality. Sometimes, singing a song may even be better than any other spoken expressions. However, some types of music we love are being commercialized. An example of this is ?oViet pop?, where some hot guys or chicks stand on the stage moving around stupidly and moaning nonsensical lyrics.
1) What kind of music do you like best? Rock, pop, jazz, rap, hip-hop, or tra***ional music?and why! ?oDoes it play any significant role in your life??
2) Some opinions indicate that the tra***ional music is being dumped!
- do you agree or disagree with this view? Why?
3) What do you think is the most important facet of a successful singer? Is it his/her voice, appearance, choreography, lyrics, or charm?
How do you think we can help preserve the national identity of Viet Music while still promoting it to the world?
4) And the last but not least, just stand up and sing a song if you feel like singing!

Nice to see you there!

It''s nice to join the game show last Sunday after a very long time. We really felt relaxed while taking part in this time. After hearing about the programme I just wanted to see what kinds of games you were going to give and whether I would use them for my students. The games were so interesting and exciting, expecially the second one Thank the organizers so much for giving us chances to smile, laugh and make friends
The only thing is, in my opinion, that your instruction for the 1st game should be clearer so as not to make other people misunderstand
Wish U all the best
