Abstract: The research aims to investigate the current state of digital competence among English teachers at high schools in Da Lat, Vietnam, and provide recommendations to improve their digital skills. The research team conducted a survey of 28 English teachers at seven high schools in Da Lat, using a Likert scale with five levels and statistical analysis methods. The results show that the teachers' abilities to use electronic devices, educational software, and to search, select, and diversify information from the internet are all at very high and high levels. When encountering technical issues during teaching, the teachers' problem-solving skills are also at a very high level. However, the frequency of teachers using digital technology to grade assignments for students is only at a moderate level. The obtained results can provide a source of information and data for high schools in Da Lat and nationwide to compare, contrast, and develop strategies to enhance the digital literacy of English teachers at teaching institutions.
