A language program assesses learners through CEFR mediation descriptors. One learner can reliably convey detailed information and the main arguments of complex but clearly structured texts, provided that the topics concern professional, academic, or personal fields with which the learner is familiar. The task requires selecting and reorganizing relevant information for another person, but does not involve interpreting highly implicit meanings, subtle ambiguity, or specialized material beyond the learner's field.
Within the CEFR mediation scale, this performance corresponds to:

A teacher presents short interactions among English users from Kenya, India, Brazil, Singapore, Canada, and Nigeria. Instead of ranking pronunciation against one national standard, the class analyzes intelligibility, accommodation strategies, identity marking, and the ways speakers negotiate meaning across linguistic backgrounds.

    Central to an approach or method in language teaching is a view of the nature of language, and this shapes teaching goals, the organization of the curriculum, and the emphasis given in classroom teaching. A lexical approach in language teaching refers to one derived from the belief that the building blocks of language learning and communication are not grammar, functions, notions or some other unit of planning and teaching but lexis, that is, words and word combinations. The lexical view holds that only a minority of spoken sentences are entirely novel creations and that multiword units functioning as ‘chunks” or memorized patterns form a high proportion of the fluent stretches of speech heard in everyday conversations.

     Collocations are ‘language chunks’ that form an integral part of any discourse, written or spoken. The term refers to the regular occurrence together of words. For example, compare the following collocations of verbs with nouns:

    Do my hair/ the cooking /the laundry/ my work

    Make my bed/ a promise/ coffee/ a meal


(RICHARDS, Jack C.; RODGERS, Theodore S. Approaches and methods in language teaching. 2. ed. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2001. Adaptado)
Lexical approaches stress the teaching of the lexicon because, under this perspective, words or multiword lexical chunks

    Notional-functional syllabuses (hereafter referred to as NFS) began to be used in the United Kingdom in the 1970’s. The distinguishing characteristics of the NFS were its attention to functions as the organizing elements of English language curriculum, and its contrast with a structural syllabus in which sequenced grammatical structures served as organizers. Thus, the NFS focused strongly on the pragmatic purposes to which we put language. Curricula were then organized around such functions as identifying, reporting, denying, accepting, declining, apologizing, etc. Some seventy different language functions were identified.

    The NFS quickly provided popular underpinnings for the development of communicative textbooks and materials in English language courses. It is important to emphasize that the NFS did not necessarily develop communicative competence in learners because, as a syllabus, it still presented language as an inventory of units – functional rather than grammatical units, but units nonetheless. Communicative competence implies a set of strategies for getting messages sent and received and for negotiating meaning as an interactive participant in discourse, whether spoken or written. It pressuposes the learners’ ability to “know how to do” things, being able to act in different situations as they put their constructed knowledge into practice.

What makes a teacher


    The idea that if you know something, you can teach it, may seem a straight line. For a gifted few, it might be. But many experts argue that teaching children and young people requires knowing how to teach the content to achieve understanding that is useful to actual learning.

    Knowing how to teach children and young people means having in-depth knowledge of pedagogy (varied philosophies of learning and teaching), assessment, learning styles and needs — and the varied complex dynamics that dictate the context for how effective teaching happens. This fundamental knowledge happens alongside opportunities to practise and refine one’s teaching skills.

    This is the difference between being taught by qualified teachers and by people who know stuff. Knowing content is not synonymous with good teaching. Getting teachers into classrooms faster may fill classrooms, but at what cost? There is a cautionary tale here worth paying attention to.

    Shortening, and in some cases not requiring teacher education at all, has been tried and failed. Studies have shown that a major predictor of student achievement is the preparedness of teachers. For teachers who have entered into classrooms via expedited pathways, evidence showed negative impacts for all student groups.

     I fear we are on a road of short-term gain for long-term pain.

   In any society, a well-trained certified workforce supports continuity of learning and achievement. We wouldn’t contemplate having an unqualified doctor treat us any more than we want an uncertified electrician wiring our house. So why is an unqualified teacher OK? Our children deserve better.

The treatment of English as a lingua franca in the BNCC affects both the understanding of linguistic variation and the relationship among the different dimensions of language learning. 

Analyze the statements below:

I.Treating English as a lingua franca challenges the idea that legitimate use of the language belongs exclusively to speakers from particular national territories.
II.Linguistic knowledge should be mastered before oral, reading and writing practices, since the BNCC treats grammatical knowledge as a prerequisite for meaningful language use.
III.The intercultural dimension includes reflection on relations among language, identity and culture and on the social effects associated with the global circulation of English.

Reading Comprehension


The use of media and digital technologies has transformed English language teaching and learning in Brazil. Teachers can now use videos, podcasts, digital games, social media, online dictionaries, educational platforms, and interactive applications to create more dynamic learning experiences. These resources can provide students with contact with authentic materials and different varieties of English used around the world.


However, technology itself does not guarantee effective learning. The teacher plays an important role in selecting appropriate resources and connecting them to clear learning objectives. Digital tools should be used as pedagogical resources rather than simply as entertainment. For example, a teacher may use a video to develop listening comprehension, followed by a discussion that encourages students to express their opinions in English.


Technology can also support collaboration and student autonomy. Online projects may allow students to work together, communicate with other learners, and produce multimodal texts combining words, images, sounds, and videos. In addition, students can access English-language materials outside the classroom, creating opportunities for continuous learning.


Despite these possibilities, the use of technology in Brazilian schools also presents challenges. Unequal access to devices and reliable internet connections can create educational inequalities. Teachers may also need training to integrate digital resources effectively into their pedagogical practices.


Therefore, the meaningful use of technology requires not only access to digital tools but also critical planning, teacher mediation, and consideration of students’ social and educational contexts.

More than 20 children killed in DR Congo school fire

At least 24 schoolchildren have died in a stampede as they tried to flee a fire that engulfed two schools in rebel-held Bukavu in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, officials there have said.
Adults are also reported to have died in the fire and there are fears that the death toll could rise further in the densely populated Kadutu commune.
Survivors have been taken to nearby hospitals, and footage of the scene shows children lying on hospital floors in pain.
Some 300 houses have also been destroyed in the fire, the cause of which is unknown.
Rebel?appointed authorities released a provisional death toll of 24 on Thursday evening, confirming previous reports, but there are fears that more people may have died.
Pictures circulating on social media show young children lying motionless on the ground.
A witness quoted by Reuters news agency said the fire had been put out by afternoon but smoke was still rising from rubble and corrugated metal.
Bukavu, the capital of South Kivu province and one of DR Congo's most crowded hillside cities, was captured by M23 rebels in February last year.
Meanwhile the government in Kinshasa released a statement on X, without specifying numbers of casualties.
"The Ministry of National Education and New Citizenship expressed deep sorrow over the deadly fire," it said.
"With several lives lost and many injured, the toll remains provisional. The minister offered condolences, affirmed solidarity with families, and ordered assessments of affected schools to ensure learning continuity."
The tragedy follows a similar fire in Kinshasa last weekend, where residents died in a stampede at a wedding banquet hall.
In response, the government has ordered strict safety measures and deployed teams nationwide to enforce standards at public gathering places.
