Thus, a convergent parallel mixed methods design was used since it is a type of design that could gather different but complementary data on the same topic. In quantitative phase, there were 233 education students responded to the study through random sampling. Constructed questionnaires were used to gather quantitative data. In qualitative phase, participants were those seven education students who were selected to join the one-on one in depth interview and seven education students who joined the focus group discussion. The results of this study revealed that education students were highly proficient across various aspects such as interaction engagement, respect for cultural differences, interaction confidence, interaction enjoyment, and interaction attentiveness. Data integration of both quantitative and qualitative data results indicated that there is convergence of findings from both types of data.
