摘要：AbstractThe aim of this study consists in elaborating a reference framework of pedagogical competences of language teachers in the initial training programmes. Beginning with a critical perspective on the most relevant approaches on language teacher education, we will highlight the pedagogical competences of language teachers. The empirical basis of the research consists of a questionnaire applied to 210 2ndand 3rd-year students of the initial language teachers training program. We consider that the data offered by this observational investigation may also be used as a starting point in other different domains.
