Abstract:
Today's classroom is a rainbow of cultures, traditions, and languages. In Hmong culture, parents think of a teacher as an authority figure who understands student needs, knows what would help students learn to excel academically, and understands how to teach students to become productive individuals. In this article, the author presents some information about the Hmong culture that will help K-12 teachers understand their Hmong students and provide them with the very best education.
