| Sumario: | The context of the internationalization of Brazilian universities is primarily characterized by the plurilingual and intercultural interaction between students and faculty members who engage across various spheres of the academic environment. This new configuration of higher education institutions, in addition to impacting the development of students' plurilingual and intercultural competencies, also influences the training of additional language teachers, particularly the training of Portuguese as a Foreign Language (PFL) teachers, given the increasing interaction with exchange students and visiting professors. In this context, it is essential for Language and Literature students to receive robust training in the field of PFL so that they can not only teach this audience, but also understand and mediate intercultural relations while developing linguistic and cultural skills to reflect on Portuguese as an international language for fostering coexistence within the university environment. The aim of this article is to reflect, based on questionnaire responses, on the perceptions of undergraduate Language and Literature students specializing in Portuguese at the University of São Paulo regarding the field of PFL. This reflection seeks to reconsider teacher training practices in PFL at the university and contribute to the institution's internationalization efforts. |
