Problem:
Cultural fluency can improve our self awareness which encourages us to reflect on our own cultural identity and beliefs compared to others we encounter. The scenario allows us to interact with the advisor from a different culture, allowing us to gain insight into the views we have of the world, our core values, and assumptions we may have. The basis of cultural fluency is becoming more self aware when we interact with those from various cultural backgrounds. Bing culturally fluent allows one to adapt the way in which we communicate when we interact with those from different cultural backgrounds. In this scenario there is an obvious difference of opinions as to what would be best to alleviate the stressors as a student. While the advisor may view quitting work as best option, that is not feasible financially. And in this scenario expressing your understanding of the advisors opinion while appropriately explaining your situation and reasoning for not being able to quit your job would be an appropriate response in this situation. In this scenario being culturally fluent is the skill of recognizing what is appropriate for the scenario and adjusting your behavior and response. Need Assignment Help?
