Abstract

The objective of this work is to report the lived experiences during the Internship in an online English Language course of the Federal University of Paraíba - UFPB. To base this work, we are ground on studies by Celani (2001), Leffa (2011), Pimenta e Lima (2012), and Reichmann (2014), among others. Thus, we present the organization of the Supervised Internship (ES III) in English Language, we discuss the role of the supervised internship for teacher education and report the experience during the observation period and the classes in the ES III, pointing out issues that involving teacher training and the challenges faced by the English teacher, especially in Brazilian public schools. Then, we make some reflections about the theoretical and practical questions experienced in the English classes of a public school in Brazil. Finally, we understand that the supervised internship is configured as a moment of development and construction of professional identity.
