BRAZZIL MAGAZINE - USA

AS WE HAVE TO START, LET´S DO IT THE BEST WAY... 


NINE YEARS AGO, MY TEACHER AND SUPERVISOR DURING MY STUDIES FOR MASTER´S DEGREE, PhD JOHN ROBERT SCHMITZ, INTRODUCED ME TO THIS INTERESTING WORK SOME GUYS WERE DOING IN THE USA. A GROUP OF BRAZILIANS LIVING ABROAD, SPECIFICALLY IN NEW YORK, FOLLOWED BY SOME NORTH-AMERICAN AND OTHER FOREIGN FRIENDS STARTED PUBLISHING SOME ARTICLES, ALL IN ENGLISH, DISCUSSING POLITICS, ECONOMY AND ALSO SOME CULTURAL MATTERS ABOUT BRAZIL. AS TIME WENT BY, MANY FAMOUS WRITERS, POLITICIANS, JOURNALISTS WERE INVITED TO WRITE FOR BRAZZIL MAGAZINE. IN 2002 I INCLUDED SOME OF THIS ARTICLES IN MY RESEARCH. THE EXPERIENCE WAS GREAT, THAT´S THE REASON WHY I RECOMMEND YOU READING IT TO IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH SKILLS!! ENJOY IT!!
