Sisyphus, a figure from greek mythology, evokes two distinct ideas: the wit that deceives the powerful -twice deceived the molds of the underworld and escaped death - and the suffering of an effort that never ends. Sentenced to an exemplary penalty for deceiving the forces of hell, Sisyphus is subjected to a cyclic and endless ordeal. However, a question remains: Would the teaching activity, especially during social isolation and its remote classes, have its kind of sisyphean penalty? Or is there in the apparent punishment of Aeolus's son more than appearances obtained? This article presents an approximation between the myth of Sisyphus and the teaching practice aimed at serving the popular classes, revealing a drama from the perspective of the freirean hope, under auditors from different dimensions of time: Chronos, Aión and Kairós. Such drama arises in the aionic time, the time of childhood, in the time of doing it over and over again without letting the stone's burden weigh in vain. Stone is re-signified in this text, rethought as a way of always new, even if apparently repetitive. We allude to the sisyphus effort to carry the same stone up the hill, the teaching practice based on not using and learning to be confused and complemented in a hopeful and utopian waiting imbricated in non-conformity and in the faith of social emancipation.

Palabras clave : waiting time; time of hope; teaching in the pandemic.
