I use the Internet as a powerful tool to help make our classes interactive and bring the Brazilian Culture closer to the student.

I use many different links, but these are some of my favorites:

www.youtube.com

For songs, news and soap opera’s episodes

www.terra.com.br

For magazines, news, movies, culture, travel, shopping and more. Great site for teaching teenagers and adults.

www.yahoo.com.br and www.cade.com.br

For more advanced students who can search on Brazilian search engines, a lot more efficient than searching on international search engines.

I also subscribe to dish network which has a Brazilian Channel “Globo” and my box allows me to record any show and use it in the classroom. $ 29.00 a month + cost of the satellite.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Tchau!
