Culture can be broadly defined as characteristic features of a person’s or group’s everyday existence, such as shared values, attitudes, and practices. It is an essential part of learning and culturally responsive teaching  practices are vital. Culturally responsive teaching cultivates student identity, background, stories, and perspectives as an essential part of everyday learning. Culturally responsive practices aim to promote collaboration, help broaden student knowledge through critical thinking, and assist students in developing a strong sense of identity. By making culture a deliberate part of teaching and learning, the inclusion of diverse cultures, points of views, and differing personalities is prioritized. Teachers are essential to promoting the development of students’ awareness and sense of self in relation to the world.
