Andrew Wernette

Youth Advocate
In high school, there is a tendency for people to have a bias toward Natural Science subjects over Social Science subjects. Students majoring in Math, Information Technology, and other STEM subjects are usually more in favor than other social science majors, such as Literature, History, or Geography. What is the reason behind this? Should these toxic beliefs continue to be trusted? With his talk on "Differences between Natural and Social Sciences?", Mr. Andrew Wernette will shed light on this long-standing perception.

Earth is not just a planet. Earth and life itself are also a giant hard drive filled with vast and varied information that we can never fully learn. You’ve probably heard of the saying: “Study, study more, study forever.” This begs the question: What is the end point of studying? To answer this question, TEDxLeQuyDonGiftedHighSchool presents to you “Why must a chair be a chair?” by Ms. Trần Thị Kiều Trinh, which will help you find the beauty in active learning.

In this day and age, procrastination is not of great unfamiliarity, especially to the youth. We all have once targeted to finish a task, then get on our phones and forget about it. So how do we change this? How do we put an end to procrastination? How do we make the best out of ourselves, and reach our full potential? Let’s find out some methods to end or reduce procrastination with Ms. Nguyễn Hương Ngọc Quỳnh and her talk - "From procrastination to success".

What depicts culture? To what extent do modern people appreciate the values that culture bestows upon us? In the context of cultural importance phasing out as modern society strives for international integration, there places an urgent call for a serious discussion on the impacts of culture and arts on aspects of human life, especially in Vietnam. What should we do if the cultural preservation status goes against our expectations? Ms. Trương Như Ý with "Reinstate cultural values", will express her viewpoint on this issue and provide us with meaningful thoughts.

The present reality is that just a limited number of women make up a small portion of the distribution of leadership and influence, with traditional values, gender norms, and the longstanding patriarchy being the contributory factors. So what is underlying this situation? In response to this issue, Ms. Vũ Quỳnh Trâm will give us a thorough explanation via her speech "Cultural differences in how female leaders are perceived."

Thành Bách Nguyễn

Youth Advocate
Have you ever compared yourself to others, set up your standards, and put yourself through pressure just to realize that they’re so out of your league? In contemporary times, when rankings, achievements, outer beauty, and social standards prevail over other human values, it’s easy to get lost in finding yourself and accepting who you really are. However, embracing your true self does not just mean being content with the things that are, but it is trying to reach for things that can be, utilizing your own strengths and taking your own way, not hiding behind a masquerade. Let’s explore this matter further through "Acceptance "by Mr. Nguyễn Thành Bách.

How is a TEDx speaker different from you? Are they truly different? What has led it to be that you are part of the audience today, having paid money to be sitting down there, listening, while another gets to go on and on and earn the credit of a speaker? Is there really any difference, or is it just a false belief? "How do I pretend that I can give a TED Talk?" by Nguyen Le Thanh Tam will hopefully give you the answer.
