From the supplier: Parent-teacher conferences are not always successful because the teachers lack the proper listening, attending and questioning skills that assure parents that their children are being helped in school. Teachers must attend to the special needs and concerns of parents so that conferences become venues for sharing and learning. Cooperation between parents and teachers can significantly improve children's achievement.

From the author: This study examines culturally sensitive practices in family interviewing and developing individualized education programs. Participants were 14 professionals in the field of special education, who provided their perceptions and reflections on their experiences as members of cultural minority groups in the United States. The article reviews literature relevant to cultural sensitivity and family interviewing, describes the method and findings of the study, and discusses culturally sensitive practices in family interviewing, while avoiding stereotypes and generalizations. Recommendations for professionals include increasing their own knowledge base about other cultures; examining their own cultural biases; providing a family focus; allowing sufficient time for comfortable interviews; and considering time, place, and language needs.
