+ Customs & Etiquette Men & Women shake hands with everyone. Men wait for women to extend their hands first. If a Filipino doesn’t understand a question, the open their mouths. Raised eyebrows signify recognition and agreement “Yes” is signified by a jerk of the head upward. “No” is downward. (Filipinos rarely say no, so the non-verbal sign for “no” is sometimes accompanied by a verbal “yes”, but they still mean no! Staring is rude! It can be misinterpreted as a challenge. However, Filipino students may stare at Foreigners.

+ Customs & Etiquette Hands on hips means anger. Don’t curl your index finger back and forth to beckon a Filipino. This is considered an insult. “Two” is indicated by raising your pinky and ring finger To beckon someone, extend arm, palm down, moving fingers in scratching motion. Touch Filipino students elbow lightly to get their attention. Do not tap on the shoulder. “Eyebrow flash” is a Filipino greeting.

+ Customs & Etiquette Speak softly. Don’t be offended by personal questions. These are asked to show interest. Ask about family members. Verbal assault is a crime in the Philippines. Never bring shame to a Filipino student. This reflects on his family. Personal goals are sacrificed for the good of the family. Never criticize a Filipino student in public.
