I’ve also written a similar article specifically on teaching Japanese students

Thanks for this article Alex. Reading your article has helped me gather some ideas for my communication class, we are studying intercultural communication and I work with children as a mentor and a teachers assistant in a very mixed culture neighborhood, so I am going to center my paper around communication in the classroom with children and differences in culture in the classroom. Thanks for the bright idea! :)

Hi Funmi

Would love for any of my stuff to be used! The only thing I ask is that people don’t republish it without permission

Thanks for the article, I’m writing a paper on racial and social diversity in the classroom and this was a big help.

This is some very good stuff. I also am taking a TESOL class and this information is fantastic. Thank you so much for putting in the time to make this website. It brought up some points that I didnt think of.

Thanks Alex. This is a really thorough and helpful summary. It’s assisted me with the ‘cultural differences’ aspect of the TESOL course I’m undertaking.

You certainly do! Any of my stuff can be used in any way except republication without permission. I also have worksheets on the same subject:

Do I have your permission to use this information in an upcoming presentation I am making on working with immigrant children for our school system in Urbandale, Iowa? I would love it! Thank you!
