Case: Spanish Speaking Teacher teaching English
Mr. Martinez, Colombian native, was hired to teach English in a school. He is majored and has a master degree in English but his accent is present when speaking. Parents have complained about his accent claiming he shouldn't be teaching English because the language is not his native. Mr. Martinez has had success teaching English in his previous school and students loved his class. Because of parents' comments his new students seemed to be biased about his class. Despite his efforts to make the class engaging, Mr. Martinez doesn't seem to make progress. What should Mr. Martinez or the school's administration to mitigate the comments and change parents and students' behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mr. Martinez should continue working in the school and the administration should support him and talk to the parents. I would suggest also that the school should have an assembly or a guest speaker that will talk about diversity so the students will learn that "being different is beautiful". |
