A língua portuguesa como língua adicional : as dificuldades enfrentadas por um professor da educação básica com alunos imigrantes venezuelanos

Abstract

This work was intended to locate and explore the problem involving teacher and Venezuelan student, concerning the difficulty of learning when teacher and student don’t speak the same language. Also, it was shown which tools this teacher had used so the student could learn the Portuguese language as an additional language and then catch up with the other Brazilian students on the school content. The research method used was qualitative and documentary research, with aspects of action research, observation and interview. The result analysis method was the dialectical so it would be possible to understand how the tool used by the professor was effective to improve the Venezuelan student learning although the language differences. The research proved to be relevant in the way of identifying and understanding where public policies are still needed for the insertion of immigrants and refugees on the Brazilian public education system, recognizing that could be implemented a program of sharing culture and language between the individuals inside the school context, and how this can enrich everyone involved socioculturally. Keywords: education, immigrant, sociocultural, intercultural, bilingual, decolonial.
