The present work focuses on the theory of linguistic-cultural flows in the classroom, including the issue of language, and discusses the teacher's intervention when using decoloniality as a theoretical basis. Thus, understanding that the English language classroom presents itself as a space in which linguistic and discursive flows happen at all times, we seek, through the experience report of an English language teacher from a state school of a city in the interior of Goiás analyze its pedagogical practice and understand how the mentioned elements are configured. For the theoretical basis, support was sought in Kransch (1993), Corbett (2003), Risager (2006), Aman (2015), Mignolo (2018) and Walsh (2018), others. The data collected shows that a teacher, when developing a teaching practice, needs to understand that he has a complex and sensitive linguistic flow in hand, so when planning his classes, he should keep in mind the wide cultural range of his students and make context historical-social in which the school is inserted.
