Abstract:
This paper seeks to analyze the process of researching that the English Preservice students develop during their teaching practice in the University Distrital. During the career students receive the following three main three components of formation: disciplinary pedagogy and researching.

The pedagogy and researching components are connected during the practice that students have in some schools where they have the opportunity of being real teachers.

At the moment in which they have contact with the students in public schools they have the opportunity of detecting some real problems that they begin to treat and analyze during this teaching practice.
