CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING METHODS IN MULTILINGUALCLASSROOM.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of culturally responsive
teaching (CRT) methods in multilingual classrooms, focusing on how these strategies impact student participation, identity development, and academic success. Using a mixed-methods approach across three diverse schools, the research analyzes how teachers incorporate students’ cultural and linguistic backgrounds into pedagogy.Findings reveal that CRT significantly increases classroom engagement and builds stronger student-teacher relationships, particularly when linguistic diversity is embraced as a resource rather than a barrier.
