Three things that you just have to know about Paulo Freire.
1. He saw dialogue as an educational form. He believed that dialoge was a way for people to work with each other to gain a better understanding of the world.

2.He might be most well-known for his concept against "banking" Education. He believed that passive learners have pre-selected knowledge in their minds and that students were treated as empty accounts to be filled by teachers.

3. Three of his beggest recognitions were: King Baudouin International Development Prize 1980,
Prize for Outstanding Christian Educators , and UNESCO 1986 Prize for Education for Peace
