Abstract

this essay is about critical language education. For this purpose, it is anchored in Freirean critical pedagogy. The aim of this brief reflection is to discuss how language classes can be structured from a critical perspective, to enable the transformation of students' perception of language and the world around them. It seeks to provoke a movement that makes it possible that a learner alters his/her perception of the world, upon analyzing the language conveyed in general society, unveiling ideologies.Thus, this reflection is guided by the notion that no text is naive, and that all texts are the reflection of the world we live in, and, that is why, all of them are political in essence, what justifies a critical linguistic education. Thus, in consonance with the Freirean Pedagogy of Liberation and with the BNCC, this bibliographical essay is based on the conception that language use and understanding makes it possible to understand the world around us, when we are able to problematize the ideological conceptions present in it, even to confront them. This reflection is justified when it can contribute with language teacher education, so that they can have another perception on the linguistic education and adopt a more critical and inclusive approach for language teaching.
