Eu esperava que fosse voltado para o ensino da língua estrangeira para crianças não alfabetizadas, mas tudo bem.

I am in the 5th video and still absolutely nothing about what this course is supposed to be. A whole video about the authors!

The couse was very well made and inspirational to me. I never saw this method mentioned before in my classes and I really liked it, specially with the videos showing how actually works.

Era o que eu esperava, gostaria que houvesse a opção de adicionar legendas em inglês! Essa aula foi ótima sobre o contexto do universo da criança!

I enjoyed this course since it pointed out some basic concepts which I didn't new. As a parent who is at the beginning of the teaching process, I can definitely say that such course is extremely useful.

The course provides a fair overview only. It does not offer much in terms of concrete substance. Plus, it repeats a lot of concepts in different video clips. A bit waste of time.

The course gives practical sample videos (though video quality could have been improved); the instructor delivered concise and informative lectures throughout the course. Thanks!
