Mon, 15 Apr 2019 Mark Crocker Alumni Experiences The Impact of Local Culture on Education in Laos The local cultural environment undoubtedly plays a crucial role in a community's education system. When specifically talking about developing countries, it is unavoidable to include Laos among those with a strong cultural background. Although Laos can be considered a fairly small country, it surprisingly contains more than 45 different ethnic groups, most of which boast their own traditions, culture, and language. This is a peculiar context that certainly needs to be taken into consideration when talking about education development. In a country like Laos, where old traditions and beliefs are still strongly followed by the community, the education system tends to absorb many of the...  [Read more]

Tue, 07 Apr 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas How to Improve Teaching One-to-One In the last couple of years, I have been teaching English in Italy by using the one-to-one methodology.
