Grok Schools Community Counselor Connect – Vietnam 2022

After the success of the Grok Schools Community Counselor Connect in Malaysia in March 2022, Grok held another Counselor Connect in Vietnam. On April 28th, 2022, the Counselor Connect at Park Hyatt Saigon was attended by counselors from ten local and international schools in the Ho Chi Minh City region, alongside university representatives from  the UK, Australia, New Zealand, US, and Canada.

The Counselor Connect was a great opportunity for counselors to connect with university representatives to discuss best practices in university guidance counseling, as well as exchanging experiences and expertise with each other on higher education advising.

Similar to the Malaysian event, the roundtable discussions provided attendees with the opportunity to exchange ideas and learn more about different topics, ranging from medical schools to writing recommendation letters and personal statements.

Grok would like to thank the following schools that participated in the event:

• Albert Einstein School
• British International School Ho Chi Minh City
• British Vietnamese International School HCMC
• Canadian International School, Vietnam
• European International School
• Australian International School
• International School Ho Chi Minh City
• S. Ting School
• Renaissance International School
• Saigon South International School

“I had a really great time at the Counselor Connect! As a first-time counselor, it was a really great opportunity to connect both with university reps from around the world, and colleagues from around Ho Chi Minh City.  I learned a lot about how to support my students with their university plans, and I am excited to attend the next one. Thanks Grok!” (Stephan Singh, Guidance & University Counselor – Secondary, Canadian International School)
