Cultural Factors Affecting Chinese ESL Students' Academic Learning - 1 views

  •  
    This article is explaining in detail the differences in cultural factors of education between North American students and Chinese students (both college level). Some of the major factors discusses are Confucianism, communism, behavior reform, authority, and organization. The article explains the differences in expectations between the two cultures. Although it is not focused on the specifics of writing, it takes a deeper look into ESL learning as a whole for Chinese students. I think that every student aspiring to become a teacher should read this article. It is only eight pages, but it answers a lot of questions about Chinese students that might arise.
