Summary/Abstract: Teaching practice is a natural part of future teachers’ professional training. It is implemented by most of the students of the Faculty of Education at Charles University in three ways (except for e.g. Master’s degree programme of Primary School Teacher Education which has a different organization of teaching practice). Within their branch of study students enroll in continuous teaching practice, which is a part of the so-called “University Basics”, orientation practice and also pedagogical-psychological practice, the performance of which belongs to the pedagogical and psychological training. During their undergraduate studies, students of both full-time and combined forms of studies first attend the orientation practice, which has the form of observations and subsequent reflections in schools and extra-curricular facilities, and which is supposed to motivate first or second year students. After completing the course of general didactics in the consecutive Master degree study programme students attend continuous practice, which is both specialized and pedagogical-psychological. It also includes reflective seminars, where students are supposed to present their activities. All types of teaching practices are mandatory courses, students take part in them under the expert guidance of teachers from various departments and in cooperation with faculty schools, faculty teachers and other participating institutions. The outcome of the teaching practice is a portfolio with tasks completed by the students that is assessed with a credit or a graded credit by teaching practice supervisor. The text of the article is devoted to the concept of teacher training in the Pedagogy study programme.
