Abstract

The main objective of this study was to identify the importance of English language teaching in basic education, in a public school, and there are disagreements between students and teachers about this importance of teaching, especially in elementary school, in relation to the programmed contents and what the students want to learn. The approach was based on bibliographical research in articles and field research in a State Elementary and High School in Cuité de Mamanguape. The data collected in articles and questionnaire found that English language teaching had advances in teaching and difficulties due to the schedules and showed that the teacher and student relationship is excellent. The work discussed the importance that students are giving to language teaching in their school and the importance of valuing the English language in public schools, noting that learning English is global, and should prepare the individual for the job market and a globalized world. This study sought to discuss the valuation of the English language in the public school in question.
