  • Ca Mau : High school graduation rate 2025 over 99%
  • Ceremony to honor 32 students with high achievements in the 2025 High School Graduation Exam

Becoming the runner-up of the province's C00 block in the 2025 high school graduation exam with 28 points, Hung not only brought pride to his family and hometown, but also cherished a great ambition: to become a teacher bringing letters to highland villages or remote islands .

“Pressure makes diamonds”

Hung’s life is a slow-motion “film” about the journey of independence. From the third grade, when his peers were still being taken care of by their parents, Hung began to get used to taking care of himself. His parents went to work far away, the burden of making a living weighed heavily on their shoulders, leaving Hung and his brother to rely on each other. By the fifth grade, when his brother also went far away, Hung officially became an “adult” in his own small house. He cooked, cleaned, and most importantly, studied on his own.

Nguyen Duy Hung's impressive achievements come from his hard work in studying.

The small house next door has his grandmother, but Hung understands that in his life, he has to walk on his own. Recalling those days, Hung shares sincerely, without complaining: "For me, pressure will create diamonds. It is the difficulties in the days of independence and the great motivation from my family that have helped me get to where I am today."

For 12 years, Hung has always been an excellent student, an excellent student. Hung's list of achievements is full of awards that anyone would admire: First prize in the district-level excellent student competition in Geography for grade 9 - an achievement that Hung is always proud of because it was the beginning of his love for this subject; First prize at the provincial level in grade 12; especially the achievement of surpassing the level, taking the excellent student competition for grade 12 when he was only in grade 11 and achieving the highest score in that competition. In addition, Hung has also achieved many other titles such as "3 Good Students", and most recently, the title of runner-up in block C00 of the province, in which Geography achieved an absolute score of 10.

Hung’s secret to studying is nothing profound, it’s simply passion and self-study. Hung confided: “I have had a background in Geography since grade 9. I think, to study Geography well, the most important thing is to have passion and understanding of this subject.” In addition to lectures in class, Hung also researches materials and studies online.

A mother's tears and the dream of "going up the mountain and down to the sea"

When she learned that her son had achieved such high results, Hung’s mother, Ms. Le Thi Trang, could not hold back her tears of emotion. Far away, the hard-working mother, despite being sick, still worked hard. “I told Hung, ‘You should try to study hard, I will try to work hard to earn money to take care of you’” - those words were simple but contained all the love, sacrifice and hope.

Nguyen Duy Hung prepares his own meals when his parents are not around.

With 28 points in the C00 block, the threshold of prestigious pedagogical universities is wide open for Hung. He is considering between Ho Chi Minh City University of Education, Da Nang University of Education and Can Tho University. But the most special thing is not which school Hung will choose, but the career dream he cherishes: to become a Geography teacher in the highlands or islands.

Hung said that his love for Geography began with video clips about countries when he was young, and was nurtured by teachers with “heart and vision” that he greatly admired. It was these teachers who helped him nurture his desire to “live in the countryside and on islands”, bringing knowledge to places that were lacking.

Nguyen Duy Hung's journey is a testament to the truth: no matter where you start, as long as you have the will, determination and a loving heart, everyone can turn difficulties into motivation, turn dreams into reality. Certainly, with the independence and strength that has been tempered since childhood, with the boundless love of his family and a noble ambition, Hung will become a talented teacher, bringing knowledge to light up the country's roads, just like the dream of "going up the mountains and down to the sea" that he has always cherished.
