Disadvantages
However, intercultural communication may provide cons. Sometimes, international students experience feelings of uncertainty and anxiety about how to integrate into their host society. International students often question the deeds that prescribe social norms, in their host country and whether or not they are adhering to these norms. In regards to international students, all of these differences, between the host country and their country of origin, can result in incompatibility among students, intercultural conflicts, and social alienation. Furthermore, some findings suggest that some schools may express concerns about issues such as a student’s language ability, they tend to lack empathy for the life challenges students are experiencing, including their emotional and psychological well-being, but some schools did not consider their role in contributing to these behaviors, and instead blamed the students for lacking critical thinking skills and other negative things.5 Besides that, if it is the culture of the host country or dominant society to marginalize minority groups, then the minority groups will have less successful relationships and more conflicts in their interactions. For example, in an experiment, some American students’ reaction to international students is willing befriend with internationals students, while others will not. Moreover, research also found the domestic staff and students exhibited greater prejudice against international students by thinking of them as “sad, lonely and other negative words”. The level of prejudice varies depending on the student’s home country. So, when students lack confidence in their communication skills, or international students facing the experience of negative interactions with the host culture, international students may be unwilling to seek guidance when they need it. So, it will provide cons of intercultural communication in international students. Recommendation Experience different cultures regularly can improve the intercultural communication. About this, traveling is the best way to inspire curiosity about other cultures. People visiting different kinds of restaurants can also exposure to different cultures. Furthermore, join the social groups for international professionals or even attend plays, or watch movies that are from another culture also will increase the variety of cultures that people encounter in the daily life. Lastly, involvement of others also is one of the ways to improve the intercultural communication. People should be always ensuring that members from other cultural backgrounds are involved in daily communication in order to learn and understand each other’s cultures. For example, working together with members of other cultures breeds an ease with them. This gives rise to a common ground to understanding each other, the way each person communicates and how they use non-verbal communication. Besides that, involvement of others helps the understanding of the context of usage of certain words and symbols and helps one to understand how different messages are interpreted by different communities.
