Effects of a Hmong Intern on Hmong Students.

Low, Janie Matsumoto; Wong, Pia Lindquist

Multicultural Education, v5 n4 p12-16 Sum 1998

A program on Hmong culture, language, and history was implemented in a diverse, urban, public elementary school. Observations of two Hmong students while in the Hmong program and in their regular classroom were compared. Being in a classroom with children of the same language and background, as well as having a Hmong teacher, promoted higher self-esteem and confidence. (EMS)
