A young adults approach: unidades didáticas para o ensino de inglês

Abstract

The present work was developed as a concretion of my learning process concerning English Teaching in a meaningful and communicative way. As an English teacher at private language institutes for almost nine years now, I have always felt something missing while teaching teenagers and young adults. The constant feeling that it was not possible to reach the students, that what was being taught was very much distant from their reality, social and cultural contexts making them lose motivation and even leave the course was the main reason for me to aim my final paper at that audience.
