... I'm just wondering what differences you saw and, in reverse, how can I prepare my students for their trip to the US? Here are some of my thoughts:
*Flush toilet paper in the toilet, don't leave it in the trash can.
*Take your shoes off in the house?! (not sure about this one)
*Wait until everyone is at the table before you eat.
*Be on time.
I need help with this, I'm too close to both cultures to see this one!

I wonder if you could include simply,"Don't be easily offended". People in other countries simply have different manners - just because people are louder or more direct than you're used to doesn't mean they intend to be rude...
That's a good one, Jim! I was thinking about it, but I wasn't sure how to word it.
