Hi Paula,

I liked very much this text. I would say that we should teach students in class making them react to culture aspects comparing it with their own culture. For example: What do you think of kissing each other on the mouth as a greeting? How is it in your country? How do greet your friends? Do you know which counties you do that?
By doing it so, we stimulate students to discuss about a new topic and learn new culture.
