Marcia Aparecida Silva, Izidio Dias de Carvalho Junior

Abstract


This work aims at exploring the YouTube platform as a social network and useful space for English language learning in the Brazilian context. We believe that YouTube is a potential platform to enhance autonomy, but we are aware that there is a specific kind of student who could benefit from using this tool. For the theoretical basis of this research, we are based on Recuero (2009) to discuss the meaning of social network. We will explore some YouTubers who use the platform to teach the English language.
