Thao Tam's speech EF Challenge with Eng sub and Viet sub

Описание: We IELTS FACE-OFF team had many requests on a video with eng sub and vietsub from 3 years ago video in which our lovely host Nguyễn Lâm Thảo Tâm, at that time a grade 10 student from HCM City’s Đinh Thiện Lý High School beated over 7,000 other Vietnamese students to win the Education First’s (EF) public speech competition. The competition invited young people to compete with fellow students to give a speech on the theme, "Do you believe nothing is impossible?"

Tâm’s speech inspired and impressed the jury board and audience greatly, said singer Kyo York, an ambassador of many cultural and education projects in Việt Nam.
She was invited to join EF’s Youth Leadership Forum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in August 2016.
