Cultural pre-competence cannot be assumed. We must embed this in the teacher development programs at University. So many lack exposure to other cultures/race/poverty/religions in their own experience.

Some great strides are being made in teaching about different cultures. But to make that learning truly significant, teachers must go beyond; they must allow students to apply the historical information with present day information; they must allow their students to figure out how they can make a difference and help change society's thinking.

Something that was drilled into our heads in college is that "teachers wear many hats." There are very few roles teachers DON'T have to take on. We are so much more than just teachers; we are mentors, role models, counselors, parents in some cases even. There's a thin line between too much information being shared and being a constant in a student's life.

"It's not my job to listen to their life stories and be their counselor. I'm here to teach and that's it." How can you not take on that responsibility as part of the job?? How can you not want to? You can't just leave it to the "warm and fuzzy" teachers to be there for the students. It takes a village.
