Tolerance and Cultural Sensitivity in The Classroom - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
Since one of the essentials of being a good teacher is being respected by your students, it's very important to make sure one does not offend culturally by one's behavior or the content of the lessons. Lessons should be fun and at times feel "free" in the sense that students are laughing and interacting with each other and with the teacher perhaps in a game, but at no point should boundaries be crossed that would make students uncomfortable or put them in a defensive posture.
Rapport
Special Cultural Aspects
Examples of Cultural Misunderstanding
