Tonkin Free School -
*It was stareted in 1907. 
*It provided classes in hygiene, French and Science. 
*The main objective was to impart a Western styled education to Vietnamese students. 
*The basic idea behind Tonkin Free School and other similar schools was 'To be modern, it wasn't enough to learn Western ideas and culture, Vietnamese also had to look modern.'
*In such kinds of schools, Vietnamese were taught to stop engaging in supposedly "foolish" practices. 
*For e.g. Vietnamese men traditionally had long hair. However, in the name of modern education, they were asked to cut their hair short.
