These days, musical notes steadily rebound from a special piano class of special students.
It is the music class for children at Vo Hong Son Center for Raising Disabled Children (Cho Chua town, Nghia Hanh district, Quang Ngai province).
During a previous visit to the Center, Chairman Ho Minh Hoang asked the Trade Union and the BOD to coordinate with the Center to organize musical instrument classes. The Group would finance the entire cost.
Two dedicated teachers are teaching seven children the first notes in the beautifully decorated classroom. Mr. Nguyen Thao, one of the organ teachers, said that this was the first time he had accepted to teach such special students.
"You are all children with disabilities. Some children are 17 or 18 years old, but their awareness is limited, so it is quite difficult for them to communicate, and they need to be patient and taught many times. When the children are bored and can't concentrate, the teacher must gently comfort them so that they can continue learning. Many children are passionate and try to learn the piano, giving us more motivation to teach them," said Thao.
Organ classes are held 5-7 sessions/week. Ms. Thu Ha - Director of the Center, said that the Center had hundreds of children but had only taught the first seven students.
"Although I want to expand the class for more children because they are all children with disabilities, not all can absorb well. In the immediate future, we are going to teach basic music theory and simple songs, hoping to discover gifted children for advanced training", said Ms. Ha. The class would also teach the Center's teachers to later disseminate to the children.
“Thực sự rất cảm ơn ông Hồ Minh Hoàng và Tập đoàn Đèo Cả đã tạo cơ hội cho các em được học tập, tiếp xúc với âm nhạc và nhạc cụ. Thời gian qua, Tập đoàn không chỉ quan tâm, ủng hộ về mặt vật chất mà còn tạo điều kiện cho các em được nuôi dưỡng về văn hóa, trí thức và tâm hồn”, cô Hà chia sẻ.
"Thank Mr. Ho Minh Hoang and Deo Ca Group for creating opportunities for children to study and interact with music. Over the past time, the Group has not only cared about and supported the children but also created conditions for the children to be nurtured in culture, intellect, and soul", said Ms. Ha.
