| Abstract | This paper proposes the use of common finance proverbs for teaching finance to Vietnamese students. Using finance proverbs facilitate teaching by appealing to Vietnamese students' cultural background, by introducing ideas in a succinct and unique way, and by creating a friendlier classroom atmosphere. Vietnamese proverbs also help English-speaking instructors overcome language barriers and establish a trusting relationship with students. This paper presents thirty-one financial concepts accompanied by their related Vietnamese conjugation. Strategies for the effective use of Vietnamese proverbs in the classroom are suggested as well. Even for readers without Vietnamese students, the compilation of multiple finance proverbs in one location is of value. |
