Abstract

Based on cultural-historical theory, this paper addresses the sense of a student teacher during her freshman year. The methodology was based on narrative inquiry through focus groups. The results provide a chronology in which the past, the present and future intertwine creating the sense about being an English teacher. The narrative shows a dichotomy between the student teacher’s expectations and the institutional rules. From this relationship, results also show that the teacher’s sense is characterized by conflicts in which professional development means the capacity to find solutions for immediate problems, whether they are related to the past or present, in a way that projects new expectations for the future profession.
