This following review article presents the results of a systematic exploration of the literature whose general objective was to recognize the main methodological processes of narrative research, as well as to have information to determine gaps in this field of research. For this, research focused on the categories of teaching identity and narrative biographical method were selected. The method of information analysis was the study of metasynthesis, used to integrate and generate new interpretations of qualitative research results. This is done by applying review guides and performing documentary analysis. The results indicate that narrative biographical research enabled the development of knowledge about teacher education; teachers' lives and professional experience; how sociopolitical, family and educational conditions influence personal and professional development; on conceptions of good teaching, teaching identity, pedagogical knowledge, traits of memorable teachers and the richness of narrative research.

Keywords : Research method; identity; teaching profession.
