Abstract

A survey on English Teachers and students’ opinions about English teaching/learning in public schools was developed in Paraná in the late seventies (Tílio, 1979). In 2001 two other ethnographic studies were carried out in two other tows in the same state, focusing students’, English Teachers’ and staff’s perceptions as concerns English teaching. The results of such studies are presented in this paper, and they reveal that as times goes by, many perceptions of teaching/learning English in public schools have remained unchanged.
