**This workshop has been canceled due to low enrollment. We hope to offer it again later in the semester.**

How do our cultures inform how we communicate, how we learn, and how we teach? New international PhD students navigate communication at Harvard on multiple levels: as students, as scholars, and as future teachers. In this interactive workshop series, we will explore how our cultural values influence our communication in a range of academic and classroom situations. You will have the opportunity to learn, practice, and get feedback on cross-cultural communication skills for Harvard classrooms and beyond, with sessions devoted to academic culture; small talk; participating in classes; listening skills; email etiquette; and giving and receiving feedback. This series is designed for new PhD students who did their undergraduate education outside of the US, but is open to any new PhD students interested in developing intercultural competence and practicing communication skills. Students are welcome to register and attend any or all [sessions.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/139iUSh2qe2t7NTt-zlSPhIzb6CdaUJXjluNUv08RmsU/edit?tab=t.0)

**Session 5: Email Etiquette**

Professionally, we use email as a tool for daily communication. When email is easy to misread or set the wrong tone, what are strategies you can use to convey your message clearly, concisely, and politely? This session will explore organizing strategies for email and how you can shift formality and style to suit the different audiences you are emailing.
