The analyses of this paper focus on the ways by which the adult literacy student lives his time in mathematics classes, making it possible to understand how he presents himself by means of the manifestation of his way of being with the other, of being in the world, and of being with mathematics. They also permit us to investigate how the adult literacy student opens himself to the possibilities in his process of insertion into the world of reading and writing of mathematics. Finally they permit him to talk about his time lived in this process.
