In skill-based syllabus, the content of the language teaching involves a collection of particular skills that may play a role in using language
The primary purpose of skill-based instruction is to teach the specific language skill that may be useful or necessary in using language. Skills are things that people must be able to do to be competent in a language. Unlike situational syllabi where functions are grouped together into specific language use settings, skill-based syllabi group linguistic competencies (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar and discourse) together into generalized types of behavior, such as listening to spoken language for the main idea, writing well-formed paragraphs, specific purpose writing, and so forth.
Diversitythe state or fact of being diverse;
difference; unlikeness

MULTICULTURAL EDUCATION (movement)
It enables teachers and educators to
give value to the differences in prior
knowledge, experiences of learners
from diverse background and
familiarity with students’ histories of
diverse culture. (Haertel,1998)

Suggestions that will assist you in understanding your multi-cultural
learners:
2. Never make assumptions about an individual based on your perception of that individual’s race, ethnicity, culture and gender.
3. Avoid stereotyping
4. Get to know each student as a unique individual: Walk in the footsteps of all your students.
