Why Students in Bilingual Schools Still Struggle With English


Many parents assume:


“My child is in a bilingual school… so English should be fine.”


But in HCMC (Saigon), many bilingual students still struggle.



Why This Happens


Bilingual programs:


  •  divide time between languages
  •  focus on multiple subjects


So English development may not be deep enough.

 


The Common Pattern


Students:


  •  speak English comfortably
  •  struggle with reading and writing



The Hidden Issue


Many students:


  •  memorize
  •  rely on context


But don’t:


  •  decode words properly
  •  build strong literacy

 


What This Leads To


Over time:


  •  reading becomes difficult
  •  writing becomes weak
  •  confidence drops


 

What Bilingual Students Actually Need


They need:


✔ Strong Reading Foundations


Phonics and decoding


✔ Writing Structure


Clear, organized thinking


✔ Academic English


School-ready language



How Spark Supports Bilingual Students


At Spark English Center Vietnam, students:


  •  build reading through phonics
  •  improve writing step-by-step
  •  develop academic English


With:


  •  small classes (max 6 students)
  •  structured learning
  •  long-term pathway (ESL → academic → IELTS)

 


A Simple Reality


Being in a bilingual school is not enough.


👉 Strong English must be built intentionally
