Cultural Intelligence for Educators

EFFECTIVE TEACHING IN A CULTURALLY DIVERSE CLASSROOM

Diversity training program for teachers of all levels

• Assess and develop your cultural skills to recognize your strengths and blind spots
• Explore cultural values and understand how they influence behaviours
• Communicate more effectively with students from diverse cultural backgrounds

Diversity is ubiquitous in today’s classroom – even more so in a virtual or hybrid setting. Classrooms gathering students from various ethnicities and genders can contribute diverse perspectives, more creativity and enriched mind-sharing. It can also present challenges  for educators such as frustration, misunderstanding, unintentional offence and other uncomfortable or even damaging situations.

Now more than ever, educators need to hone their cultural skills to teach more efficiently. To enhance the learning experience, teachers must develop and utilize their cultural intelligence (CQ) to improve awareness and apply more inclusive and empathetic teaching practices.

Our program designed for educators of all levels includes a personal cultural intelligence assessment, a workshop to explore and develop cultural intelligence, and an individual consulting session.
