Hope is a condition for teaching. It is a matter of waiting without expectation, but assuming that a child can always learn something. On the part of the teacher, therefore, it is necessary to make a bet and sustain this desiring place that gives rise to the transfer. When adults can dream of a future for the child, there are effects and, therefore, have a utopia for them, it seems fundamental to us. This is the thesis that we seek to defend throughout this work. Our reflections were born from experiences lived in Angolan and Mozambican schools. The object on which we focused in this investigation were the ways in which the position of the subject can relate to the place of that subject in the desire of the Other and affect, as an effect, the relationship of the child with knowledge.
