2 - Writing - A Rush of Adrenaline and EPI

As I said before, I don't usually write in English. So, when the teacher told us to do a text about "A Rush of Adrenaline", and then a colleague would correct the mistakes, I was like "no teacher, I don't want to do that!"
Turns out that I really like it and I know that most of my coleagues like it too. It was an oportunity to train how to correct our student's activities. That type of activity also made me see that I needed to stop underestimate my friends' capacities towards English.
Amanda did my text's correction and she was excellent doing it. We even discussed the use of many words and we learnt very much with each other. Great experience!



Another great and new thing that happened to me was that I had to write an article for the first time and present it in EPI (Encontro de Professores de Inglês). Coincidentally, Ana Antonia is the founder of EPI, and will publish my article. So, indirectly she gave me the opportunity to write my experiences at Inglês sem Fronteiras. Thank you so much teacher!

Resumo
Este artigo apresenta um relato de experiência de ensino de Inglês no Programa Idiomas sem Fronteiras. Os fatos aqui descritos ocorreram no Instituto de Linguagens da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso (UFMT), em uma sequência de duas aulas para turmas de Inglês de nível A1, segundo o Common European Framework of Reference for Languages – CEFR. Tais aulas foram ministradas por uma professora em formação inicial, estudante do segundo ano do curso de Licenciatura em Letras Português e Inglês, recentemente admitida como membro integrante do corpo docente do Inglês sem Fronteiras. O foco das aulas eram tópicos de pronúncia da língua inglesa. Observando a dificuldade dos alunos ao aprenderem um novo idioma, com elementos fonéticos diferentes dos da Língua Portuguesa, a professora optou por apresentar o conteúdo de forma expositiva. Este artigo foi escrito para informar os detalhes dessa experiência e seus resultados, na esperança de contribuir com outros professores iniciantes que desejam introduzir tal conteúdo em suas aulas.
Palavras-chave: Ensino de Língua Inglesa; Ensino de pronúncia; Inglês sem Fronteiras.

1 – A Rush of Adrenaline

In this exercise we were asked to make a text about a moment that we felt a rush of adrenaline. I didn’t remember a lot of “rush of adrenaline” moments in my life, but I remember one that was very fun. The Water Park At the beginning of the year, I felt a rush of adrenaline that I will never forget. My girlfriend and I were on vacations in Minas Gerais, because it’s where my parents live. We wanted to do something new and funny, so we decided to go to a water park called “Thermas Dos Laranjais”. This water park is one of the biggest in Brazil. At first, we needed to make a 2 hours travel to get there, once it was in another town. But then, when we got there, it has a huge line to enter the place. It wasn´t a great time waiting in the line. But, when we entered the water park it was amazing! If I thought that the line was huge, I didn´t know what was waiting for me inside. The park was magnificent; it was impossible to see where it ends. The park itself was a rush of adrenaline, bu...

4 - My English Future (Conclusion)

Well, of course that I want to say, "I don't know my future", but I will make an effort. 😅 After 10 years in contact with English, I know that I still have a lot of to learn. I want to improve my vocabulary and my grammar. Giving classes are helping me with that.  Something that I've realized is that pronunciation is extremely important in the process to learn a new language. It helps with the confidence to talk and express yourself. My boyfriend and I are planning to finish the major and go abroad to do a master. We want to continue to study and to become better teachers. Meanwhile, we still have to finish our third year. Hope you've enjoyed this portfolio!
