Abstract

In this paper I discuss the pre-service education process of English teachers in a public university, having my own practice as teacher educator as the starting point. I problematize in particular the relation that some formative contexts can have in the process, the need to adopt and to implement a model of critical linguistic education to future English teachers. Finally, I propose Exploratory Practice as a possible ethical and reflective framework upon which the process of teacher initial education can be developed.
