摘要：Many future non-native teachers of English around the world, and specifically in Argentina, express a strong desire to meet one of their most pressing needs: improve their command of English so that they can perform with greater confidence in their classrooms. The purpose of this paper is to critically analyse the effectiveness of the implementation of a pre-service language development course which included a methodology component, for student teachers attending a teacher training course at the Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata (UNMDP), Argentina. In the light of the findings obtained, some possible avenues for future improvements and continuing professional development will be suggested.
