Out of 43 students in the College Tourism English Class (cohort 13) at Kien Giang College, alumna Thị Đậu stands out for her remarkable perseverance and personal growth throughout her academic journey.

During her time at KGC, Thị Đậu was well known for her diligence, modesty, and respectful demeanor. Though naturally shy and soft-spoken, her relentless effort earned her the Advanced Student title every year, leaving a lasting impression on both faculty and peers.

In late 2023, Thị Đậu discovered her true passion for international tour guiding and launched her career in Hòn Thơm, Phú Quốc. Stepping into the industry marked a major turning point: overcoming her initial reserve, she transformed into an engaging, confident guide seamlessly interacting with international travelers.

Her transition from a quiet student into a dynamic professional has captivated visitors from Russia, the U.S., France, Australia, Canada, Taiwan, and China. With her charm, depth of knowledge, and enthusiasm, she consistently receives glowing praise and affection from foreign tourists.

Thị Đậu’s story proves that when passion aligns with ambition, personal limits naturally fade. Her journey from a reserved graduate to an accomplished international tour guide serves as an inspiring blueprint for future students striving for career excellence.
