Summary: | This article aims to discuss how the perezhivania and emotions experienced by an English teacher in initial training can assist in professional development. The data was generated in an extension course in English teaching, with a student-teacher of English in the initial education process. Data collection instruments used were: Written narratives, oral interviews, classroom observations, class recording and stimulated recalls. Data analysis followed content analysis procedures (BARDIN, 2011). The results have suggested that different emotions are experienced by the participant in the same class. They take on a positive or negative connotation from the (re) action they generate. When mediated by a more experienced couple, these emotions and experiences can take on a transforming role in the teaching practice of the student-teacher, leading her to better understand and manage her practice in the classroom. © 2022, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Faculdade de Letras.
