Can you explain what the course consists of ? What do you mean by "English language - attendance?" What �s the connection between the two?

Actually, "attendance" in English means "the act of being present (at a meeting or event etc.)".


The correct term for atendimento would be "assistance", not "attendance" (that �s a false cognate for Spanish and Portuguese - and maybe other languages too!! Wink)

Atendimento = service? reception? customer service?

Still don �t get it, Bruna . . . what kind of "assistance" ? assistance needed to master the language ?? assistance if the sts have difficulties ??

I �m guessing "custumer assistance" or custumer service. But Morganalin would have to be more specific. I was only referring to the correct term.

Hello Morganalin,

I taught this module and I looked for material in the schoolbooks (7th and 8th grade) 

You will find a lot of things: In a shoe shop; in the supermarket.... Basically __I taught them how to talk to the customers.
My group was really weak so I had to teach them the numbers, the colours, clothes, food and so on before I started to introduce "atendimento" Wink

I might have some things,too that I can send you. Send me a message :-)
