Design Thinking

Design thinking is a ‘human-centered’ approach to learning, collaborating, and problem-solving.

Project-based learning

Project-based learning is a student-centered approach where students learn through projects, explore, and apply knowledge to real life.

Learning by doing

In learning by doing process, students go through a process of exploration, hands-on learning, and practice to answer the teacher’s question or challenge that requires deep thinking, and knowledge acquisition.

A pioneer in teaching Design Thinking

Students are provided an ideal space to experiment with their ideas, asking “Why? How? What is a better way?” to find solutions for real-world problems.

Sharing

"Dewey is providing almost everything our family wants"

Dewey is providing almost everything our family wants for the development of my kid in studying at the school. The curriculum encourages students' self-learning skills. Students consider studying as their responsibility, not their parents' responsibility. I can see my kid become more confident every passing year.

Parent of Student Nguyen Minh Khoi

"I see the day-by-day improvement of my son"

I see the day-by-day improvement of my son in his communication, knowledge, and learning skills. He learns through experience with the "Learning By Doing" method and he can make different products himself. Some of the products are used for charity projects. In my opinion, these values are much greater than what students learn from textbooks.

Mr. Nguyen Tu Tran

Parent of Student Nguyen Tu Tuyen

"I wish I could go back to my childhood to study in a school like Dewey"

After attending a lesson with my child, I wish I could go back to my childhood to study in a school like Dewey. Since my child studied here, she has become more confident, and her English skills have been greatly improved. Project-based learning is a fun and active approach for students to present their ideas under teachers' instructions without being pressured. Besides, I see my child become more mature with changes in behavior and communication with parents about the surrounding world, family, teachers, friends, etc.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Binh

Parent of Student Van Khanh

"Learning comes naturally when children are happy, eager for the lessons"

Students can be themselves and freely express their identities when they study here. Learning comes naturally when children are happy, eager for the lessons, and thoroughly engaged in the learning process. In particular, I was surprised when my child shared about Humanities subject. It seemed to me that I could broaden my social knowledge thanks to a grade 9 student. After each unit, students gain a deep understanding of arts, historical contexts, humanistic aspects, and their influence on society and people in each period, then draw their own lessons.

Ms. Bich Hang

Parent of Student Phuong Anh

"Our teachers design many activities in class, which makes our lessons more interesting and easy to understand"

The subject that I like most is Maths because teachers design many activities in class, which makes our lessons more interesting and easy to understand. My friends and I also have opportunities to participate in many projects and we can apply our knowledge to real life.
