Details	For advanced subjects (3rd year) such as Resort Management and the Travel Industry , I requested students to investigate real business in hotel and travel industry and propose development plan for business in the future. Realistic projects helped students to learn about local businesses , major problems and possible solutions. This approach has been well-perceived by students. “Thank you so much for good lectures. Really learn a lot from the class (Student of The Travel Industry) ‘Specific content made we closer to be professional” (Student of the Travel Industry) “Professor Bui is an amazing instructor. The class is really interesting. I love this class. Professor teaches through personal experiences. That is the success of the class. As I want to start my own hotel one day , taking this class helped me a lot in understanding the field…You encourage us to answer in the class and you never neglect student’s ideas.” (Students of Introduction to Tourism and Hospitality)
