BARRETO ALCOBA, Carmen  e  ALVAREZ, María Esther. Women and teaching: A look from the life story as told by its protagonists. Saber [online]. 2013, vol.25, n.1, pp.104-110. ISSN 1315-0162.

Teaching, as a profession, has been constituted into a space that has been filled by feminine presence. However, it is common to hear people talking about teachers with a masculine undertone, often neglecting the situation explained above. A question that guides this research is related to finding logical and valid explanations to how women incorporated into the labor of teaching. To explain how, from domestic duties, women transcend the private space and progressively start overtaking the public spaces. Even more importantly, they go on conquering these spaces to the point of generating national state concerns, not only to attend the education of all citizens, but also to promote legislations to attend problematic particular to women. In the lives of adolescent women teachers, a great part of the untold history of our society and country could be summoned. Thus, this investigation which is still undergoing, aims to rescue, collect and publish the stories of women teachers from Sucre state, Venezuela. In this sense, a qualitative paradigm has been selected for this study. The hermeneutics relative to life stories is helpful as a vehicle to obtain the required information. The interviewed women teachers constitute the evidence of the approaches that direct this research, since their pedagogical and life practice act as an important reference to understand the vital elements that typify the education in Sucre during the last years.
