Giữ gìn bản sắc tiếng Việt trong bối cảnh đưa tiếng Anh trở thành ngôn ngữ thứ hai: Những tác động và vai trò định hướng của giảng viên sư phạm Ngữ văn

Tóm tắt

Adopting English as a second language in schools is an important educational policy to promote international integration and enhance the quality of human resources. However, language is not merely a means of communication but also a core component of national cultural identity. This article examines the impacts of implementing English as a second language in schools, including both the opportunities and the challenges for preserving Vietnamese linguistic identity, while clarifying the role of Vietnamese language teacher educators in guiding pre-service teachers’ language use. The study adopts an interdisciplinary approach integrating linguistics, cultural studies, and education, in combination with document analysis, historical-logical analysis, and a questionnaire survey of 157 pre-service Vietnamese language teachers at Hanoi Metropolitan University. The findings indicate that English proficiency expands access to literary works in their original languages, contemporary literary theories, and international scholarship. At the same time, code-mixing and the overuse of English in everyday communication remain common among students. Based on these findings, the article proposes several orientations to strengthen the role of Vietnamese language teacher educators in fostering bilingual thinking, enhancing Vietnamese language competence, and contributing to the preservation of national cultural identity in the context of international integration.
