proposal
For a successful and knowledge able class, the direct method must be applied, in

which the individual will learn the language in context and with practice. Applying the use

of ICT, watching videos, conversations between peers, conducting virtual tests, music,

interviews with native English speakers, and many more elements that can be included in

the classes.

Thanks to the direct method, students will be surrounded by the English language,

and with practice knowing its proper pronunciation, writing and hearing will adapt easily to

sounds, learning will be greater and much more fruitful, generating great improvements in

acquisition of the new language, it will be like learning your mother tongue, through

imitations of sounds, words, and learning new vocabulary of daily use.

One of the positive points is that the students will be surrounded by the language

that is being learned, and it is necessary for the person to have a daily encounter with the

language they wish to acquire, the student will be able to put into practice their.
