Results show that in multicultural education different pedagogical strategies are used such as cooperative learning, collaboration, intergroup discussion, active involvement and other teaching style which are integrated in the curriculum, teaching learning process and student outcomes which are pillars of educational process. Due to cultural differences the international students encountered problems related to school environment and community, religion, social interaction, food preferences and climate.
