SUMMARY:

This dissertation presents an interdisciplinary research proposal on teaching and learning English for juvenile offenders as a resocializing extracurricular activity. It emerged from the author's practical observation regarding the lack of resocializing activities for teenagers in conflict with the law that took into account all the peculiarities and challenges of their sociocultural conditions. The research is based on the theories of Applied Linguistics, a transdisciplinary and intercultural field of study that identifies and uses solutions to problems related to language in real life. Considering language and social life cannot be separated, given its complexity, LA establishes dialogues with other areas of study in this project such as: Education, Philosophy, Psychology, Law and Social Work. Its general objective was: To analyze resocializing possibilities of teaching English as an extracurricular activity for juvenile offenders serving social Work, through active methodologies in a decolonized way, as specific objectives: Promoting a mini-course in English for teenagers in submitted to MSE (serving comunitary work) at CREAS in Teixeira de Freitas to assess the potential of English as a resocializing activity; investigate, through active methodologies, the processes of teaching English to juvenile offenders; understand the relationship that juvenile offender make between the world, the English language, society and themselves. The methodology used was action research.It was concluded that the teaching and learning process of English language for juvenile offenders through active methodologies, considering the didactic and cognitive point of view, is similar to that developed in any other public, however there is a different process of rebuilding self-esteem and self-efficacy for this public. Regarding the inferences they make between themselves, society and the English language, the hypothesis raised was verified, since common sense views such as: “I don’t even know Portuguese, let alone English” or “I will never travel abroad”, were raised, but at the end of the learning process through a multicultural and decolonized teaching, the adolescents showed a more holistic view of the language. Finally, the hypothesis raised of the possibility of inserting the English language as a resocializing activity in CREAS proved to be possible, according to the data collected from the institution's professionals and from the course applied.
