This article sets out to investigate and clarify the role of in-classroom translation tasks as per the perceptions of English teachers at a bilingual school in Fortaleza/CE. Some commentary is made on translation and on how it associates with language teaching via literature review. Data collection was carried out by means of a questionnaire answered by the teachers, encompassing their perspectives on translation as a teaching facilitator as well as their in-classroom practices, in order to verify potential benefits and impairments, as well as where those teachers stand on the use of translation tasks for bilingual and multilingual individuals. Upon assessing the information obtained from the participants, we have been able to ascertain a generalized rejection of in-classroom translation, although allowances were made with regard to the relevance of translation to comprehending and assimilating different languages and cultures.
