Just a nod and a smile from the candidate

Nguyen Quang Minh is a member of the Hanoi Open University volunteer student team participating in the Exam Support Campaign for the 2025 High School Graduation Exam at Phuong Mai Secondary School (Dong Da District, Hanoi). This is the second time he has participated in the “support” campaign and had a memorable performance when he carried a candidate with a broken leg from the school gate to the exam room.

The male student said that he had broken his leg and had difficulty moving. In many cases, he needed help from others, so he sympathized with him and wanted to support and encourage him mentally so that he could comfortably enter an important exam.

“In particular, I myself was a candidate who went through stressful exams such as the 10th grade entrance exam, high school graduation exam, and received support and encouragement from volunteers. These impressions inspired me to become a part of the Exam Support Program, to spread positive energy to candidates. I am very happy to be able to support you,” he said.

Wearing the green shirt "Supporting the exam season", Nguyen Quang Minh and his teammates, regardless of the sun or rain, arrived early at the exam site to be ready to help candidates and their families, from giving out water, supporting with school supplies, guiding the location... to cheering and encouraging.

“What makes me most touched is when I receive words of thanks or inquiries and conversations from parents and candidates. Just a word of thanks, thank you, brother and sister… or a nod and smile from candidates before entering the exam room is enough to make us volunteers happy and try harder,” Minh expressed.
