The contexts of performance of the Health area require professionals with generalist formation, technical-scientific knowledge, ethical posture, humanized practices and with critical-reflexive vision. Based on this premise, this research aimed to analyze the pedagogical formation of the internship supervisor of the Physical Therapy courses, in Porto Velho/RO, and the contributions of this professional to the formation of physiotherapists, also involving aspects related to the teaching identity and professionalization. It is a descriptive-exploratory research of qualitative approach carried out in two private Higher Education Institutions (IES). The results showed that the pedagogical formation for the internship supervision was given by the "self-reflection of the daily practice of the preceptor's office", in the accompaniment of the direct contact of the students with the patients, by the examples of the teachers that they had along the process of schooling and by the pedagogical weeks that occurred sporadically or every six months in the IES. Through these based on the results, it is concluded that a personal, political and social new social significance about the importance and consequences of the teacher’s pedagogical formation in the area of Higher Education Health is necessary, especially the supervisor of internship in Physical Therapy courses, in order to have a commitment to the critical and humanized formation of the students.
