The aim of this research project is to identify the opinions about the teaching which final year students studying to be English teachers have received during their degree at a Chilean university. The methodology used to collect information was semi-structured interviews. The processing of data was performed by means of a content analysis, where the codification and categorisation of the information was aided by the qualitative analysis software programme Atlas.ti. The results indicate that the participants' opinions about teaching are marked by a traditional and communicative focus of the language.
