A letter
Hello, everyone.
Dương Quốc Thái · Founder
I'm Thái, the founder of Dreams Tree. Every one of us has a path we have chosen to grow along. Each person is one piece in the larger picture of society, and each of us makes society better by doing our own piece well. As for me, I chose to develop people: helping each person understand clearly what their piece is, and then fit it into the right place with their own hands.
I have travelled through many countries and many cultures, and I have seen one thing repeat itself in a great many young people: you are not short of ability, you are short of a map. Choosing a major because friends did, choosing a school on the advice of an acquaintance, choosing a country because it is the one everybody is talking about, and then going a very long way before realising you never asked yourself the first question: who am I, and what do I want.
Studying abroad is a wonderful way to grow. Learning in a different environment, living with people unlike yourself, looking after yourself in a place where nobody knows who you are. Those are experiences that make a person grow up faster than any classroom. But it is only wonderful when it is your own path, not a path somebody else chose for you.
Dreams Tree is here to do two things: help you understand yourself first, and walk with you on the path you have chosen for yourself.
As someone lucky enough to have lived and been tested across many cultures, I want to pass that on to you. If you are brave enough to look straight at yourself, and willing to put in the effort to move forward, I firmly believe you will make it.
Thank you for coming, and welcome to the journey of starting to discover yourself!
