Dear authors and colleagues,
We are delighted to inform you that the full issue of May 2022 has completed its mission. We acknowledged authors from Bangladesh, Taiwan, and Vietnam who contribute their intellects and experts to the quality of the issue.

To Southern Vietnam, we send our thanks to (1) the Foreign Trade University, Ho Chi Minh City Campus, Vietnam. Ngoc Hong Phuong Vu and Ha Thanh Le used a mixed-method approach to analyze the influence of six components in a CV writing process from a social-constructivist approach. (2) Pham Manh Tri et al. at the Faculty of Foreign languages, Van Lang University, investigate the concentration challenges that EFL students at Van Lang University are encountering while they are studying online. Particularly, (3) at Van Language University, Dinh Huynh Mai Tu employed the TBLT framework in technology-mediated environments to enhance students’ vocabulary retention and interpreting skills.
To Western Vietnam, we send our thanks to the School of Foreign Languages, Can Tho University, Can Tho, Vietnam. Le Xuan Mai and Le Thanh Thao employed a qualitative method to investigate the factors influencing Vietnamese students’ attitudes toward English learning in a tertiary institution in the Mekong region to help local educators enhance the quality of teaching and learning English in this region, considered a “low-land” in the education of Vietnam.
Finally, we really appreciate the hard-working of the editorial board and reviewers. Without their efforts and valuable time, the International Journal of TESOL & Education (ijte) could not achieve such qualified research articles on this issue.
Thanks be to God for everything!
Sincerely yours
