pronunciation and basic greetings. They expressed wish that more Vietnamese
classes will be opened.
Head of the Russian, Asian and contemporary Greek language
faculty Ricardo Cornejo said the school will consider adding Vietnamese
language into its curricula in the near future to meet students’ demand.

how to make fresh spring rolls using rice papers.
On the occasion, they gained an insight into the unique culture of
