completed a bachelor's degree in 1951 in Hanoi, studying English and French, and
then traveled to Paris for a second baccalaureate in mathematics. She stayed in
France to study for an agrgation at the University of Toulouse, which she
completed in 1959, before returning to Vietnam to become a mathematics teacher
at the Hanoi National University of Education.[2] Hong became the first female
