    Teachers may hold lower expectations for students based on their sex, socioeconomic status, race or ethnicity. Girls and students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds or minority races are sometimes viewed as less capable due to stereotypes. A student's type of school, appearance, or oral language patterns can also influence a teacher's expectations, with teachers potentially having lower expectations for students from inner city or rural schools, who dress less expensively, or speak nonstandard English.
