Velocity solution like Thymeleaf - thymeleaf

Question

I would like to know if I can use Velocity Template like Thymeleaf when I have an object in Spring with attributes, let say, (product.courseName) and I want to send it to an HTML page this way
h1 th:text="${product.courseName}" HTML Example Course Name /h1
so i can show it directly...
Thymeleaf let me isolate the HTML development from the Spring Coding, but I cannot find such a simple approach in Velocity. Can I show the HTML with "HTML Example Course Name" in a browser and the real Course Name from each object when Velocity executes (just like in Thymeleaf)?
PD: I would appreciate any documentation reference.
SPRING CONTROLLER
#RequestMapping("/product/{id}")
public String getProductById(#PathVariable Integer id, Model model){
model.addAttribute("product", productService.getProduct(id));
return "product";
}
PRODUCT.HTML
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h1 th:text="${product.courseName}">Course Name</h1>
</div>
</div>
Thanks

Yes but not exactly you are doing it. If you take a look the section properties of the reference documentation it's explained how to do it:
Properties
The second flavor of VTL references are properties, and properties
have a distinctive format. The shorthand notation consists of a
leading $ character followed a VTL Identifier, followed by a dot
character (".") and another VTL Identifier. These are examples of
valid property references in the VTL:
$customer.Address
$purchase.Total
And aswell is explained, if you use it, it calls the getter of the property like thymeleaf surely does.
$customer.Address. It can have two meanings. It can mean, Look in the
hashtable identified as customer and return the value associated with
the key Address. But $customer.Address can also be referring to a
method (references that refer to methods will be discussed in the next
section);
$customer.Address could be an abbreviated way of writing
$customer.getAddress()

So in resume, don't use thymeleaf tags like th:text.
<h1>$product.courseName</h1>
