Dear friends,

Comment the following remarks according to your oppinion on the subject.
"Ao adotar um método eclético, o professor deve ser capaz de fazer
escolhas metodológicas que atendam às características e às necessidades de seu
contexto pedagógico. Portanto, ele deve estar atento para que o caminho até seus
objetivos seja coerentemente percorrido. Em outras palavras, toda atividade
docente deve ser justificável e estar em harmonia com os objetivos de
ensino/aprendizagem."

There are several methods and approaches that the teacher use according to the teaching context. The teacher must have a goal to reach for the teaching / learning to take place. Some methods are applicable in accordance with the reality of each class and school community. The teacher can choose the method that best meets the needs of students so that goals be achieved.

I think that choose a method that meets the student and the teacher is a good alternative for developing foreign language teaching. The advantage of this methodology is that it is easy to be adjusted to any learning style, however, you must be careful you do not lose focus or away from the proposed objective.

In my opinion,nowdays there isn't a single method for all classes because we have so many differences, I mean, we have, in the same class, many levels( from basic to advanced). So we have to mix some methods to make them understand and use tha language.

It is very important a cordial relationship but the students don't have a good class
because they think what is fundamental to establish principles rules.The teacher
rspect the student but the students losing the respect.

I agree with you and I believe that it is a big challenge of our profession.
The Relationship and the objectives of the class has to be balanced.

Assisti a esse filme no meu htpc e nos discutimos sobre a maneira de como os alunos entram nas reuniões e dão os palpites. Eu penso que os alunos nao estao preparados para isso eles nao entendem e isso mostra no filme a maneira que a aluna entendeu e dissse para os colegas .

Hello Pedro and friends,
About the movie, I agree that this kind of things happens with Brazilian students, for sure. I feel terrible because I don't like to see students and teachers "batendo boca", I really feel very bad and it's like the students and teachers are the same and they aren't. The teachers are adults and needs to be more controlled, but it's impossible sometimes, for that reason things like that happens.
This situation didn't happen with me, but I already saw friends of mine living this situation. It's difficult to say who is right, but I understand the teacher.
kisses,
Carlota

Dear friends,

Watch the movie suggested at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPvM9IXO2mo
Then share your understanding and opinion about teacher and students relationship. Besides the movie is French, are there similarities with Brazilian reality? How do you feel about that? Whom do you agree with? Have you ever had such experience?

Good job,

Pedro

I believe it is possible that the fact shown in the video happens here in Brazil. I don't agree with the attitude both of them. I've never experienced it because I prefer to keep a cordial relationship with the students and I think being a teacher and want to reach out to students doesn't mean to compare them or use the same "weapons" that they usually use. Every teacher must respect the student and be respected as a professional, without losing its principles and its role as an educator or "councelor". Always keep this approach, this is the question.

I agree with you. It is very important to maintain a cordial relationship between students and teacher. Respect is essential. The teacher as a professional should avoid this type of situation like in the film . It is fundamental to establish principles of education rules with the class and so you can have a good class environment, in my opinion

The project to learn foreigner language, English and Spanish, is very important to the professionals in Brazil who will participate and receive the tourists and players in the world Cup in Brazil, 2014 . About the Pico do Jaraguá, the government needs organize this wonderful park that is one of post card of São Paulo and that needs to have a good structure to receive foreigner tourists. The park needs to be preserved.

Dear colleagues,
This forum is about your trip to Pico do Jaraguá in São Paulo. Read the text at:

Then write down your thoughts about the text and the experience (about English usage there) you had at the landmark in São Paulo.

Have a nice work,

Pedro

The project prepared by INFRAERO is a good iidea because 2014 is coming! The experience of travel to meet the landmark Pico do Jaraguá in São. Paulo was great, but I could see some defects, for example: there is no structure to accommodate groups of customers, tourists or groups of students. As a teacher of English I realized that there is no support for receiving foreign peolpe or foreign language students. Employees do not speak a foreign language and there is no information beyond a brochure at the entrance and there is also not information board on the route or on site. It's sorrowful!!. It's really a question of priority!

I think it is a big idea when the government itself provides and speeds things like this .
Tourist has to be well received.
these actions shows the education of a people
