My students are open-minded. I try to develop their empathy by showing them different ways of living and explaining them that we must respect diversity. We can develop open-mindedness by showing our students videos about different traditions and cultures.

I think that effective teachers of culturally diverse students have to acknowledge both individual and cultural differences enthusiastically and identify these differences in a positive manner. This positive identification creates a basis for the development of effective communication strategies. Social skills. such as respect and cross-cultural understanding, can be taught and reinforced by the teacher thanks to motivating activities.
