RESUMEN: En este texto, de carácter (auto)biográco, reexiono sobre
los momentos decisivos de mi vida y formación docente, con énfasis en la
inuencia del campo en la construcción de mi idendad personal y profe-
sional. Exploro cómo mi origen campesino dio forma a los componentes de
mi enseñanza. Este escrito se basa en autores como Almeida (1998), Freire
(2003), Passeggi (2011), entre otros. Adopto la narrava (auto)biográ-
ca como método de invesgación cualitava, que valora los recuerdos y
la historia de vida. De manera no lineal, exploro fragmentos que marcan
mi trayectoria de vida desde mi infancia en el campo, pasando por la for-
mación inicial en la Licenciatura en Pedagogía, la docencia en la escuela
pública hasta mi recorrido de posgrado. Con este estudio espero contribuir
al debate sobre las mujeres de mediana edad que ven la docencia y la for-
mación docente como un camino hacia la emancipación.
PALABRAS CLAVE: Narrava (auto)biográca. Formación docente. Mujeres

ABSTRACT: In this (auto)biographical text, I reect on the dening mo-
ments of my life and teaching training, with an emphasis on the inuence
of the countryside on the construcon of my personal and professional
identy. I explore how my peasant origins shaped components of my te-
aching pracce. I base this wring on authors such as Almeida (1998),
Freire (2003), Passeggi (2011), among others. I adopt the (auto)biogra-
phical narrave as a qualitave research method, which values memo-
ries and life stories. In a non-linear way, I explore fragments that punc-
tuate my life trajectory from childhood in the countryside, through my
inial training in the Bachelor's Degree in Pedagogy, teaching in public
schools, and my postgraduate career. With this study, I aim to contribute
to the debate about middle-aged women who see teaching and teacher
training as a path to emancipaon.
KEYWORDS: (Auto)biographical narrave. Teacher training. Middle-aged
women.

RESUMO: Neste texto, de cunho (auto)biográco, reito sobre os momen-
tos marcantes da minha vida e formação docente, com ênfase na inuência
do campo sobre a construção de minha idendade pessoal e prossional.
Exploro como minha origem camponesa desenhou componentes de meu
fazer docente. Fundamento este escrito em autores como Almeida (1998),
Freire (2003), Passeggi (2011), entre outros. Adoto a narrava (auto)bio-
gráca como método de pesquisa qualitava, o qual valoriza as memórias
e a história de vida. De forma não linear, exploro fragmentos que pontuam
minha trajetória de vida na infância no campo, passando pela formação
inicial na Licenciatura em Pedagogia, o ensino na escola pública até meu
percurso na pós-graduação. Com este estudo, vislumbro contribuir com o
debate acerca das mulheres de meia-idade que veem no ensino e na for-
mação docente um caminho para emancipação.
PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Narrava (auto)biográca. Formação docente. Mulhe-
res de meia-idade.
RESUMEN: En este texto, de carácter (auto)biográco, reexiono sobre
los momentos decisivos de mi vida y formación docente, con énfasis en la
inuencia del campo en la construcción de mi idendad personal y profe-
sional. Exploro cómo mi origen campesino dio forma a los componentes de
mi enseñanza. Este escrito se basa en autores como Almeida (1998), Freire
(2003), Passeggi (2011), entre otros. Adopto la narrava (auto)biográ-
ca como método de invesgación cualitava, que valora los recuerdos y
la historia de vida. De manera no lineal, exploro fragmentos que marcan
mi trayectoria de vida desde mi infancia en el campo, pasando por la for-
mación inicial en la Licenciatura en Pedagogía, la docencia en la escuela
pública hasta mi recorrido de posgrado. Con este estudio espero contribuir
al debate sobre las mujeres de mediana edad que ven la docencia y la for-
mación docente como un camino hacia la emancipación.
