Vietnamese Teachers’ Day (November 20) is a special occasion for students to express their deep gratitude to those who have devoted their lives to the noble cause of education. A heartfelt wish, a fresh bouquet of flowers, or even a small thoughtful gift can be enough to let teachers feel the appreciation and respect from their students.
If you are wondering what to choose as a gift that is both meaningful and elegant, this article will suggest 10+ thoughtful and practical gift ideas for your teachers, tailored to different personalities and preferences.
The Meaning of Giving Gifts on Vietnamese Teachers’ Day
Teachers not only impart knowledge but also teach life lessons, nurture dreams, and inspire generations of students.
Therefore, even a small gift chosen with sincerity can become the most genuine expression of gratitude. It represents not only material value but also respect and appreciation – a heartfelt token from students to those who have shaped their lives and guided them toward knowledge.
How to Choose the Right Gift for Teachers
When selecting a gift for November 20, you can keep these three simple principles in mind:
Practicality
Prioritize gifts that teachers can use daily and that are associated with their teaching work — such as notebooks, pens, thermos bottles, or desk lamps. Practicality should always come first.
Aesthetic Value
Choose elegant and tasteful items that reflect respect — for example, a premium pen, handmade card, leather-bound notebook, or small desk ornaments.
Suitability
- For male teachers: Choose items that are practical and stylish, such as signature pens or thermos bottles.
- For female teachers: Opt for gentle and refined gifts like flowers, scented candles, essential oils, or cute accessories like hair clips or keychains.

Cards come in a variety of designs, from minimalist to luxurious. When your teacher opens and reads it, it will surely be a touching and memorable moment.

3. Fresh Flowers
A bouquet of fresh flowers conveys sincerity and beauty. For a longer-lasting gift, you can choose soap flowers or dried flowers, perfect for displaying on a desk or in a study room. Pairing flowers with a handwritten note will make your gift even more meaningful.

4. Scented Candles
After long teaching hours, a softly glowing candle with a gentle fragrance helps teachers relax and unwind. It’s both a lovely decorative piece and a way to create a peaceful atmosphere.


5. Essential Oils
Essential oils are a thoughtful and elegant gift, symbolizing care and appreciation. They not only promote relaxation and wellness but also express your genuine gratitude.
6. Books
Books are always a timeless and meaningful gift for teachers. Choosing a book means sharing respect for knowledge and learning. You can consider genres such as psychology, self-development, education, or lifestyle books.

7. Premium Fountain Pen
A high-quality, elegant pen – easy to carry and practical for daily use – will accompany teachers during lessons, grading, and note-taking. Each written word becomes a symbol of learning and affection, a reminder of the student who gave this special gift.

8. Notebook
A premium leather notebook helps teachers jot down lesson plans, ideas, or daily reflections.
Tip: Pair it with a nice pen for a “knowledge combo” that’s both useful and refined.

9. Thermos Bottle
A thermos bottle keeps drinks warm or cool throughout the day, ideal for busy teaching schedules. Choose neutral or pastel colors like silver, gray, or beige for a modern, elegant touch.

10. Ha Dong Silk Scarf
A soft, lightweight Ha Dong silk scarf in a graceful color is a delicate and meaningful way to express appreciation. It symbolizes respect, gratitude, and the pure affection between students and their beloved teachers.
