The integrated program has been still popularized and applied so far thanks to the advantages such as helping students to have the most comprehensive English exposure, more standard in terms of pronunciation with foreign teachers, having the opportunity to take international exams or study at international schools later…
However, besides the advantages that the integrated program brings, it also has its disadvantages. It seems that the English level of the students is not heterogeneous, leading to the failure to acquire knowledge from foreign teachers evenly, making the students feel depressed and exhausted. Despite its limitations, the integrated program is widely supported and is improving in quality. Now you know what is the integrated program?
