Hoje, iniciamos uma parceria muito legal com Mauro Castro, autor do livro “Taxitramas – Diário de um Taxista”. Toda semana teremos uma história do Mauro traduzida para o Inglês. Assim, você pode se divertir com as histórias que ocorrem a bordo do táxi do Mauro e ao mesmo tempo, praticar seu Inglês.
World Social Forum: theory and practice
Youngsters were the majority of the more than 100 thousand attendees of the fifth World Social Forum in Porto Alegre.
