The situation that is happening in the given scenario is because of the cultural
differences. The teacher and the students were from British grammar school and they were on a
trip to Florence, Italy at the Church. It is clear from the incident that the teacher was angry with
her students and wanted to apologize for the father in the Church. Father, on the other hand, said
that it was okay and there is no need for any further apologies or cleaning of the marble walls as
was urged by the teacher.
The tension in the situation was mainly rising because they kept on repeating the same
thing over and over again without paying attention to what the other person was saying. On the
other hand, people in Italy will likely try to speak or express their opinion in a loud and clear
manner in the company friends or close acquaintances even when speaking on a controversial
topic. Apart from this, the father in this scenario was still maintaining a very mellow and calm
organized attitude (Isosävi 2020). However, in Italy people do not like to express their own
opinion publicly in front of someone senior like boss or teachers (Walker 2017). However, the
teacher from the British grammar school was unaware of this and kept on insisting cleaning the
marbles of the wall and also for paying the money when needed. However, this is not right
because the father of the church kept on saying that they will get grants and will be able to clean
off this scribbling on from their marble walls. The teacher, on the other hand, kept on insisting
on knowing the details of payment and if they can pay for the cleaning. However, she was asked
to compensate for the damage caused by her students but this was heating the situation even
more as she was not listening to the instructions being given by the father.
