ASKING CULTURAL QUESTIONS

English language teachers can ask themselves the following questions:

Attitudes: Do I prejudge my students? Am I eager to learn from them? How do I react when I don’t understand something my students are doing or saying?

Knowledge: Am I aware of my own and my students’ cultural behaviors and why we think and act the way we do?

Skills: How much do I really listen to my students? Do I evaluate first before understanding their behaviors?

Internal Outcome: Am I aware of how my students wish to be treated? Do I meet students where they are at or do I have other expectations of their behavior based on feelings I have about my own culture? How adaptable am I? How flexible?

External Outcome: How culturally appropriate have I been with my students when I interact with them? What can I do differently in the future?
