Congratulations! You did it right!

Collectivism cultures expect people from birth onwards to be integrated into strong, cohesive in-groups, often extended families (with uncles, aunts and grandparents) which continue protecting them in exchange for unquestioning loyalty. People value belonging and seek group harmony. When groups are formed, they expect that the groupings will be based on existing associations such as ethnicity, religion, or social class. When attending training or classes, they expect to learn time-tested ways of doing things so that they can earn certification. They find speaking in front of the class embarassing, and they're extremely uncomfortable with the open expression of disagreement.
