Maria das Graças

On April 25th, was Maria das Graças who managed the workshop. She showed us how English’ classes were years ago, at the first English’s schools in Brazil. For us it was so different! It’s hard to believe how things have changed since then. We are happy with this changes, in nowadays the teachers are taught they must motivate the students, and to teach with enjoyment. It hasn’t been always like that. Maria das Graças brought some old books so we could compare with the new ones. Studies were more based on automatic repetition back then. They also didn’t have any pictures inside, and the books now are much colorful, and have interesting article, not just exercises and repetition.
