Question 1: Do you miss being a student?

Sample Answer: Yes, sometimes I really miss being a student. Life felt more relaxed and I had more time to hang out with friends or explore new hobbies. I also enjoyed learning new things in class, even though exams were stressful. Now that I’m working, I miss the school environment and the sense of routine. I think those years were quite meaningful for me.

Question 2: Do you miss being a student? (duplicate — you can keep only one or use it in both topics)

Sample Answer: Hmm, that's a good question. It's complicated, actually. I definitely miss the freedom, you know? Not having the pressure of a full-time job and being able to dedicate myself to learning things I was genuinely interested in, even if it meant staying up late working on a project or spending a whole weekend at the library. I also miss the social aspect – the friendships I made, the late-night study sessions, the easy camaraderie. But honestly, I don't miss the stress of exams and deadlines quite so much! There's a certain freedom in having a stable job now, even if it means less flexibility and more responsibility. So I guess it’s a mixed bag; I miss certain aspects, but I wouldn't go back.

Question 3: What would you like to do in the future?

Sample Answer: Well, that's a big question! Ideally, I'd love to work as a translator, maybe specialising in literary translation. I've always been passionate about languages, and I find the process of transferring meaning and nuances between languages incredibly fascinating. It's more than just knowing the words; it's about capturing the essence of the original text. Of course, that'll require a lot more study and maybe even some postgraduate work, but I'm really committed to it. Beyond that, I hope to travel extensively – South America is high on my list – and maybe even live abroad for a while to fully immerse myself in different cultures and improve my language skills even further. It's a long-term plan, but I'm excited to see where it takes me.

Question 4: What are the most popular subjects in Vietnam?

Sample Answer: Subjects like Math, English, and Literature are very popular in Vietnam. Many students also focus on Science and IT, especially because they offer good career opportunities. In recent years, learning English has become even more important. Most parents encourage their children to do well in these subjects.

Question 5: What are your favourite classes/ courses/ subjects at school/ university?

Sample Answer: My favorite subject is English because I enjoy learning new words and improving my speaking skills. I also like subjects related to technology or design because they’re creative and practical. These subjects are fun and useful for my future career. They keep me motivated to study.

Question 6: Do you think it’s important to choose a subject you like?

Sample Answer: Yes, I think it’s very important. If you like the subject, you’ll be more motivated to study and do well. It also makes learning more enjoyable and less stressful. Choosing something you’re interested in can help you build a meaningful career later on. Otherwise, it might feel like a burden.
