Supporting Chinese Parents: New Workshop Builds Bridges Across Cultures

As international schools continue to grow in cultural diversity, a new online workshop aims to equip Chinese parents with the tools to better navigate the cross-cultural dynamics that shape their children’s education.


“Cross-Cultural Communication for Chinese Parents”, hosted by The Bright Side Coaching and Training, will take place on Tuesday, 20 May 2025, from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM (SGT). Delivered in Mandarin and priced at SGD 50, the session provides practical insights into how cultural backgrounds influence communication between parents, children, and educators in international school settings.


The workshop is the first in a new series focused on cross-cultural communication. It addresses the growing need for culturally responsive support for parents whose children are immersed in Western-style education systems. Through relatable educational scenarios — such as navigating parent-teacher conferences or understanding a child’s emotional development in a multicultural context — the session will help parents develop strategies to more confidently engage with teachers and support their children at home.


“This workshop invites parents to go beyond language barriers and develop a deeper awareness of cultural differences.”said The Bright Side's Flora Xu. “By appreciating and respecting diverse perspectives, parents can build stronger, more meaningful relationships with educators and better support their children’s international school journey.”


International schools are encouraged to share this opportunity with their Chinese parent communities. Not only does it empower parents to take a more active role in their child’s education, but it also strengthens the vital home-school connection that contributes to student success.
