A relação entre práticas de professores de inglês e motivação dos alunos: uma análise bibliográfica da última década

Abstract

This work presents the results of a bibliographic research developed with the general objective of knowing the relationship between practices of English teachers and motivation of students of Brazilian basic education to study the discipline, for that three specific objectives were outlined below: a) to understand positive influences of teaching practice on the motivation of students to study the English language, b) to identify aspects involved in students' demotivation contexts and c) to verify the perceptions of students of Brazilian basic education about the English teacher practices in the classroom. As a theoretical basis, the research had some authors such as Almeida Filho (1993), Krashen (1987) and Leffa (2009). 23 empirical scientific researches, published between 2010 and 2020, were analyzed. Data analysis revealed the need to encourage students with differentiated experiences. That the lack of interest in studying English is also justified by the student's fear of making mistakes, asking questions during classes, being unpleasantly corrected, not realizing the importance of knowing how to speak a language other than their own language mother tongue, besides seeing the teaching of the English language related to writing and the study of grammar. Regarding the teacher's practice in the classroom, the students affirm that the teacher needs to teach in a fun, creative, listening, respectful way with more encouragement for group participation. It is concluded that the results obtained represent a great advance on our point of view on the subject investigated in such a way that we believe we can apply them on teaching, as well as contribute to the academic community in this area of study.
