Girls! Thanks for thinking of me! My day was made brighter by your act of kindness! I feel like you are the flowers in my garden, that are little by little, developing well and being more and more successful, not only with English, but in everything you do.
Never stop growing! You are in my heart.
Henri Bergson
Hi everyone!
After having discussed and reflected, in these last few days, on “ações germinadoras na educação” and on what some inspiring lectures tells us like, “Bring on the learning revolution”, “Teach teachers how to create magic”, “Every kid needs a champion”, “The dangers of silence”, “Leadership educator” and the song that illustrates “we don’t need this education”, I think it is about time for another change!!
This were my first logos! The one on the left is back from 2010 and it was created to celebrate 10 years of English language involvement in Brazil. It was updated 2 years later, to the one on the right.
In 2013 a motto for the year was added.
New for 2014!
A change in the design of the butterfly and the caterpillar for 2015!
Until the butterfly was the only left, to express change, this year!!
And now, tada!

Guys! This is so important! I want you all to reflect on that, the same way I’ve been doing in these last few years of work in education, teaching, learning and above all, with the human being behind all that. Although it is difficult to swim against the current, we do find support along the way. The Pink Floyd song, Another Brick in the Wall, back in 1979, already said that!
Roger Waters wrote this song about his views on formal education. He hated his grammar school teachers and felt they were more interested in keeping the kids quiet than teaching them. The bricks in the wall were the events in Water’s life which propelled him to build this wall around him, and his school teacher was another brick in the wall. The song is meant to be satirical. Waters explained: “You couldn’t find anybody in the world more pro-education than me. But the education I went through in boys’ grammar school in the ‘50s was very controlling and demanded rebellion. The song is meant to be a rebellion against government, against people who have power over you, who are wrong. Then it absolutely demanded that you rebel against that.”
