Abstract

Through the post-method pedagogy, language teachers, in consideration of their students' needs, should be able to theorize from their practices and promote classroom practices based on the theoretical foundations they develop. With this context as a starting point, this article aims to analyze the teaching-learning process observed at a Brazilian Higher Education Institution based on theoretical discussions held in a course from the English Language Teaching undergraduate program focused on oral comprehension and production and the didactic materials laboratory. This is a qualitative research of the experience report type, in which the difficulties faced by students are reported, leading to a preliminary conclusion that highlights the fundamental role of creating collaborative spaces for the effectiveness of initial teacher training processes.
