“Hello, I’m Tran Nhu Cat Tuong, a freshman at VNU-HCM High School for the Gifted (An Dong) specializing in English. A brand-new perspective on humanity and life is what I want to dedicate to readers during my time as an Inspire Youth Journal newspaper writer. My style of writing is insightful and a bit literary, but starting from the tiniest life phenomenon.

I’m particularly beguiled by science and maths, but paradoxically I’m more qualified for social studies. Therefore, I’d love to dig deeper into psychology, philosophy in a mathematical and scientific way.

I aspire to be an Inspire Youth Journal newspaper writer due to not merely wanting to improve my writing skills and ability to think outside of the box, but also to being shortlisted for such global essay competitions. I believe that the time being an Inspire Youth Journal writer will immerse me into an environment conducive to reaching my goals,” said Cat Tuong.

Major achievements:

–          Shortlisted for MOE ASEAN scholarship (Sec 3) year 2026  (I’m about to depart to Singapore)

–          60% tuition fee scholarship granted by Earlscliffe independent school (United Kingdom)
