The research aims at answering the following questions:

• What are the practices of language education at Korean schools at present? How are the curriculum and textbooks developed? What teaching methods are being used and with what results?
• What lessons and experiences for the improvement of the quality of language education program at Vietnamese schools could be drawn from the language education policy and practices in Korea? |
