In light of the aggravation of crises due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this research sought to understand how, in a brazilian pandemic context, entrepreneurial education tries to build a reflexive and propositive knowledge about the role of the entrepreneur in the society and how a critical education can contribute with this process. The qualitative study analyzed the data in a participant observation process of the researcher in an entrepreneurship class of a well recognized university in this topic. The documents related to that discipline and testimonies were obtained through interviews with professors and students. From a thematic approach, the analysis was structured under the perspective of two major themes and their sub-themes: (1) Being an entrepreneur; (1.1) Entrepreneurial Profile, (1.2) Entrepreneurial Education, (1.3) Me as a Product, (1.4) Standardized individual; and (2) Be a change agent entrepreneur; (2.1) Collective Vision versus Individualistic Vision, (2.2) Positive change versus negative change, (2.3) Social entrepreneurship. Thus, the research shows an ineffective contribution to the formation of critical individuals with potential for social transformation. Therefore, the study suggests, based on a consistent foundation of Paulo Freire s critical pedagogy, between social, impact entrepreneurship and the teaching of entrepreneurship, a reassessment of the latter as a political, democratic and freedom instrument that works at the service of collective vision, developing subjects capable of interacting with real demands and acting purposefully, promoting positive changes in the face of socioenvironmental problems that are part of Brazilian realities.
