Life with Language Link

Each year the Vietnamese Trade Union will organize a staff trip for those at Language Link. This is an opportunity for staff to bring their families and spend time with colleagues. The trip is usually in Spring and the location changes each year.  

Although Vietnam celebrates International Women’s day, it has one of its own. Vietnamese Women’s’ day is a time to celebrate women and the important part they play in making Vietnam such an amazing country. We organize special events and gifts for our female employees and encourage our male staff to get involved.  

Various activities are held to celebrate the Mid-Autumn/Moon Festival in Vietnam. The main activities include worshiping the God of Earth, carrying carp-shaped lanterns and watching a traditional lion dance parade.

At the end of each year, Language Link will carry out a performance review with each teacher. Those who have excelled receive beautiful awards which are presented at our year-end party.
