English Proficiency Index

This visual demonstrates the EF English Proficiency Index of Vietnam. It includes an overview and proficiency trends by year and age group.

Vietnam ranked no 58 and scored 505, a moderate proficiency level. That score is similar to the global average score of 502. In the top-right chart, we can see that Vietnamese proficiency level significantly increased in the 2011-2013 period, from a very low to moderate level in 2 years, then maintained this sideway trend to 2023.

In specific age groups, the trends vary. While younger individuals decreased in proficiency a little from 2015 to 2023. The older groups show a significant increase. This change reflects a movement from younger to older groups.

In summary, Vietnamese reached a plateau in English fluency. The country stayed at a moderate level for ten years and didn't improve much.
