　　Attending 20th Chuo Education international forum is one of my most memorable experiences. 　　Before going to Morioka, I felt very nervous because of languages. I don’t use English well and I don’t know any Japanese. I thought that I couldn’t follow the schedule and be left behind. However, when I started the journey in Morioka, I received the hospitality of Morioka Chuo High school staffs. You were so nice and thoughtful. All of you took care of me so I had comfortable time there. 　　Going to the forum gave me an opportunity to make friend with international teachers. We are from different countries, speak different languages, have different culture but we share the great time in Morioka. We shared our opinions about students, education methods, cultures. We could understand not only our similarities but also our differences and make strong international friendships. I will keep in touch with my friends and see them in near future.　　I really hope that many teachers and students have a chance to go Morioka, attend Chuo Education international forum to experience the wonderful time like I do. I wish Chuo forum will last forever and bigger, stronger like the cherry tree we plant together. 　第20回CHUO国際教育フォーラムに参加したことは、最も記憶に残る体験でした。　盛岡に来る前、言語の問題で私は非常に緊張していました。英語をうまく話せず、日本語も知りませんでした。きっとスケジュールなどに従えず、遅れてしまうのではないかと思っていました。盛岡に着くと、盛岡中央高校の人たちから歓迎されました。皆、親切で気のつく人たちで、おかげで気持ちよく滞在することができました。　フォーラムに参加することで、海外の先生方と知り合う機会がありました。異なる国から来て、異なる言語を話し、異なる文化を持っていても、盛岡で素晴らしい時間を共有しました。生徒、教育方法、文化についての意見を交換しました。類似性を見出すだけでなく、異なる点についても認識でき、国境を越えた友情も深まりました。交流を続け、近い将来再び友となった人たちに会いたいと思っています。　多くの教員と生徒が盛岡でChuo国際教育フォーラムに参加して、私と同じような素晴らしい時間を持ってほしいと思います。Chuo国際教育フォーラムがこれからも、共に植樹した桜の木のように、大きく育ち発展することを祈念します。　　Through out my stay in Japan, everything was excellent, if not perfect. It has always been my dream to go to Japan but this trip is even beyond expectation. I loved everything so much that I don’t even know what I liked the most so I will tell you about what I did when I had nothing to do - walking.　　Because my host family always took me to school so early that I would be surprised if there were anyone came earlier than me so instead of just sitting in class, I gone for a walk around the school. The first thing that impressed me is the paintings and the drawings made by the students were all over the place. It was very impressive that your school encourage students to be creative by allowing them to display their products on the school walls. While most schools in Vietnam just don’t allow that because of the harm it may cause to the walls. Another thing that I noticed is that your school is very well equipped, even your toilet is futuristic. While many schools in my country is struggling about the lack of energy in summer days, your school toilet even make the bird singing sound when seated. The only thing that I don’t enjoy is the word limit of this essay, it seems like I have reached the word limit while I still have a list of other thing to write about. 　　To end this essay, I would say I love Japan, I love Morioka Highschool, I love my stay in Japan and finally, I will do my best to go back to Japan. Best wishes for all the Chuo international education forum!VietnamベトナムTa Quang Buu Secondary and High Schoolター・クアン・ビュー・セカンダリー・アンド・ハイスクールAnh Van LeChemistry Teacher化学教員Making new friendship新しい友達を作るLong Huy NguyenStudent生徒Back to the future, back to Japan未来へ、日本へEXCELSIOR vol.2050
