Season 2, Episode 5 - Cross Cultural Fusion - The Power of Online
On this episode, you'll meet Hassan, who's the Arabic teacher at UK Virtual School. One of the advantages of learning languages at an online school is we can employ native speakers who share their culture and insight as well as their language.
During this chat you'll hear about many of his experiences in dealing with people of different cultures.
Here are some key points from Hassan's chat with Syd:
➡ Different Cultures do things very differently, so it's important to understand and respect the differences, since we all live alongside people who are culturally different.
➡ We should never judge the values of other cultures. We should only learn to understand why they exist, and show respect for them.
➡ One of the advantages of learning languages at an online school is they can employ native speakers who share their culture and insight with the students, as well as their language.
