The Well-being subject is taught bilingually: English for the OIC program and Vietnamese for the Common Core program. It focuses on four key aspects to help students nurture physical and mental health, form healthy habits, build positive emotions, and cultivate inner peace and self-love.

Nurturing mental well-being and positive emotions for UTS students

Engaging activities include guided meditation, mental health workshops, emotion journals, group discussions, and community projects that spread positive energy.

Global Skills Project 

Part of the Oxford International Curriculum, this project-based learning subject integrates cross-disciplinary knowledge. Students work on real-world projects related to global issues like the environment, culture, and community.

Project planning and execution is the core focus of this subject

The core goal is to equip students with project planning and execution skills while encouraging creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking. Projects revolve around three themes: Nature & Environment, Society & Community, and Health & Personal Development.

Global Citizenship

Aligned with the U.S. Common Core curriculum, Global Citizenship develops students’ respect for cultural diversity and sense of global responsibility. Global citizenship skills are embedded across subjects and class activities.

Students participate in Model UN simulations, social issue discussions, community projects, and English-language debates—preparing them to become proactive, compassionate, and responsible global citizens.
