Abstract

This article aims to present the challenges faced by Polish language learners during the SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic and reflects on the possibilities that appeared with Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). The research is focused on students, in an attempt to give voice to them and understand their vision of the challenges and opportunities in the virtual environment. The adopted methodology presents mixed analyses with interpretive qualitative and quantitative data, based on the application of a questionnaire with open and closed questions, both available on Google Forms from the perspective of Applied Linguistics. The data points out difficulties in implementing digital technologies, as well as specific limitations of the remote modality, but also presents new possibilities such as learning the language anywhere in Brazil, especially in places where there are no regular courses. However, it also reveals a mostly positive adaptation to the new format. These reflections suggest the need to (re)think about the transformation of the space for teaching and learning the Polish language in Brazil, according to the limits and possibilities that still need to be discussed in the face of the new context.
