ELL 240 Week 5 DQ 2 Cross-Cultural Communication

Cross-Cultural Communication. In any social setting, people of different cultures need to communicate respectfully. For teachers, this challenge may be even greater as we confront our own biases and prejudices while helping students understand and manage their own. After reading the article titled “Six Fundamental Patterns of Cultural Differences,” discuss three of the six points that you think would help teachers communicate effectively with English language learners. Give examples of how you would implement them in a social setting. Reflect on areas you may need to challenge yourself or expand your thinking.
