📚 “Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill.” — Barbara Tuchman
A book is more than just pages, it can be the starting point of profound change in one’s life. Through stories, perspectives, and lived experiences captured in books, we shape our thinking, nurture imagination, and find the motivation to create our own turning points.
With the aim of fostering connection and inspiring meaningful conversations, we are pleased to present the talkshow:
“BƯỚC NGOẶT: YOU-TURN”
This event offers students the opportunity to:
- Gain insights from distinguished guest speakers in journalism, academia, and creative fields
- Explore real-life stories of personal transformation
- Connect, exchange ideas, and grow within a community of book lovers
✨ Special highlight: The talkshow will also feature the four winners of the Book Review Contest 2026, who will share their inspiring reading journeys and unique perspectives.
🎤 GUEST SPEAKERS
- Mr. Do Quang Tuan Hoang

With diverse experiences in both academic and creative domains, our speakers are expected to deliver insightful and thought-provoking discussions on how to navigate and create meaningful turning points in life and learning.
