Brazil Education Research Paper

I have always been and will always be utterly concerned with Brazilian Education. As a student, teacher and coordinator of various schools and educational groups, I can safely say that I have a robust background in the Brazilian system of Education. Now I believe it is time to further my knowledge in International Education, so that I can be a leader in this field implementing meaningful social changes in my country in the short run. In this essay, I will briefly write about my experience as a teacher, as well as explain my commitment to social change, and how my TC degree would support me to achieve this objective. The field of Education is not an easy one to follow in Brazil. We are underfunded and unappreciated especially in the last
Later on, I was invited by Professor Ana Lucia Henriques to be the monitor (Teacher Assistant) of English Culture and Literature. I have also taken part at many congresses and lectures about those subjects - mainly dealing with Literature, Feminism and Social resistance. During college, I also worked at social projects that taught economically challenged students, working as a course for public universities’ contests.

Due to that, its excellence in teaching and Education, as well as its proximity to Harlem’s schools and the New York school system (which resembles in some aspects with what we find in Brazil), I strongly believe to be a perfect fit for the International Educational Program. In the numerous open house events I went to in TC, I learned that the curriculum of the program is the most flexible in all programs and has this flexibility as a long term goal so that the students may profit from that with a colorful and diverse experience in the field of Education. That has attracted me immensely since I am excited about at least three major areas in Education: education leadership, development in curriculum and teaching, and advancing technology and innovation. The field of Education Leadership interests me as I have as a long term goal the objective of working for the Ministry of Education in Brazil creating programs that affect the whole country. It is true that teachers change lives. However, teachers have a limited “range”.They make a difference in numbered lives. I want to change Brazil. I want to transform the whole country. And for that, I need to be more than just a teacher, I need to change policies, curriculum and teacher trainers. I need to implement projects and promote a sociocultural revolution by being a
