The growth of the English language learner population has increased exponentially in recent years. Educators are scrambling to meet the needs of newcomers and find culturally-appropriate techniques of effective communication with Spanish-speaking parents. Districts have responded with Spanish for Teachers courses, English as a Second Language classes for parents, cultural diversity seminars, and workshops on how to overcome communication barriers.
Remember the old adage to “put yourself in someone else’s shoes?" This is still valuable advice, whether for a parent-teacher conference or for an intercultural business negotiation.
