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!) I do believe it is unfair how parents are treating this case and that administration should make sure that Mr. Martinez knows that they appreciate him and that they have his back, there is no reason for parents to feel that way because it is evident that he is completely capable of educating.
