The 120 person student body also engages in targeted Workshops, Extracurriculars, and Topic Panels to augment their holistic experience. Night time activities like Karaoke, Talent Shows, and Field Days seek to foster student development.

*** Teach a self-designed seminar ***
As a Seminar Leader, you will have the chance to design your own seminar on any liberal arts topic and teach it to Vietnamese high school students! The seminar should be a 3-session curriculum, with each seminar session lasting 1.5 hrs. You will teach this curriculum twice a day, and twice again to a different set of students for the second half of the program.

*** Be a Housemaster ***
Modeled after Harvard's residential house system, HVIET's house system randomly sorts students into 6 different houses co-led by Harvard SLs and Vietnamese TAs. Harvard SLs can bond with the students over daily house meetings, and students can participate in various interesting house activities, such as a scavenger hunt in the city and karaoke night.

*** Lead a Workshop/Extracurricular Activity ***
All SLs are required to lead a workshop or extracurricular activity, which can be anything from salsa dancing to public speaking practice. Students really enjoy bonding with the SLs over extracurricular activities!

All Harvard students (undergraduate and graduate) are welcomed to apply. Alumni of Harvard are also welcome, but are not eligible for travel subsidies.
