The 187 spots are distributed across eight face-to-face centers in the state of Piauí, making them ideal for those who already live in these cities or nearby:

Cocal: 30 spots
São José do Peixe: 50 spots
Cajazeiras: 26 spots
Monsenhor Gil: 25 spots
Paulistana: 14 spots
Valença: 40 spots

All centers function as in-person support for mandatory activities such as exams and in-person guidance, according to the course schedule. However, most of the workload is done entirely online, flexibly.

Who Can Enroll?

The selection process is inclusive and simplified. To apply, you just need to prove one of the following requirements:

Have taken the ENEM between the years of 2018 and 2025 (it is necessary to present the score report);

Why Choose IFPI to Pursue a Distance Learning Degree in English?

IFPI is one of the most respected federal institutions in Brazil, with a tradition in technical, technological, and higher education. Through the Open University of Brazil (UAB) system, it offers free EAD degree courses with the same quality as face-to-face training.

Moreover, the English Language Teaching course is aimed at training teachers committed to educational innovation, capable of acting in different school contexts and mastering the English language, pedagogy, and digital technologies applied to education.

For those wishing to enter the job market with a valued diploma, whether in public or private schools or as a private educator (including online), this is one of the best entry points into the teaching career.

Teaching English: More than a Profession, a Mission

Mastering the English language is increasingly essential — whether for access to information, global culture, the job market, or science. Therefore, the role of the English teacher is strategic and transformative, especially in public schools, where many students have little contact with the language outside the classroom.

By graduating in English Language Teaching from IFPI, the student will be prepared to:

Act as an English teacher in elementary and high school;
Take public exams for permanent teacher positions;
Work in distance education, private tutoring, or free courses;
Pursue an academic career, with postgraduate studies, a master’s degree, or research in linguistics, literature, or language teaching.

In times of economic uncertainty and digital transformation, having a free and recognized higher education diploma has never been so important. And if you have an affinity for English, enjoy teaching, and want to build a career with stability, social impact, and growth potential, the Degree in English Language Teaching EAD at IFPI may be exactly what you were looking for.

Don’t miss the deadline: registrations are from July 11 to July 18, 2025. Prepare your documentation, choose the nearest center, and secure your spot in this opportunity that combines free access, quality training, and distance education.

Teaching English: More than a Profession, a Mission

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

Secret chamber sealed 4,500 years ago found in the Pyramid of Khufu, and Hawass announces its opening to the world in 2026

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

Ford confirms the electric van Transit City for Brazil in 2026 with up to 250 km of range, fast charging in 30 minutes, and a focus on urban deliveries as last-mile logistics gain traction in the country.

Larger than the Toyota Hilux and with a range of 71.9 km/l, the new Jetour F700 PHEV emerges with 1,631 hp, four electric motors, charging from 20% to 80% in 10 minutes, and a size close to the Ram 1500.

In the backlands of Paraíba, Pedra da Maravilha surprises locals and tourists by balancing on a small rocky base, creating a curious landscape that has become a postcard of Belém do Brejo do Cruz and raises doubts in those who only know it from the internet.

Material once seen as a poor man’s choice returns as a climate bet, with red clay replacing part of the gray concrete in modern buildings, hospitals, houses, and a cultural center that transforms tradition into a solution against urban heat.

Plastic destined for landfills is turned into gasoline, diesel, and kerosene in Mexico, but Petgas technology sparks debate: real recycling or a cleaner way to burn waste while plastic pollution grows worldwide at an urgent global scale.
