Education needs changing. Education is a constitutional human right that all citizens may posses and is the process in which every human being needs to abide in order to succeed. In Brazil, this scenario is quite different, once the government is not engaged in offering a good and qualified education system to its citizens. Also, a great number of schools lack resources that are necessary to provide an effective teaching. However, this picture must change and some improvements should be made in order to solve this problem. Firstly, the resources need to be correctly distributed. The money sent to schools are mostly not enough for supporting the expenses. For example, many teachers need to buy themselves extra materials to work with their students inside the class. In addition, some of the classrooms are not in good conditions to hold a broad range of individuals. Therefore, authorities must be in charge of analyzing the distribution of these resources to certify if they are being well distributed. Secondly, methodologies need innovation. New teaching techniques must be used in class in order to provide a more engaging environment. For instance, students feel motivated when they are introduced to new ways of learning a subject. Also, progress is shown when there is more interaction in class. Hence, education will improve if new techniques are added. To sum up, the fight for a better education system involves not only teachers but also every brazilian citizen in the process. Also, the government must take its part so that there are enough materials to supply schools and teachers are allowed to use them in order to offer a better education for their students.
