This work aimed to identify and analyze the way in which the pedagogical training has been developed in foreign language graduation with qualification in English Language. The research, with a qualitative approach, had as the locus of investigation four universities in Rio de Janeiro, with 30 teachers who work in this course defined as subjects. Documentary analysis and conversational interviews were used as investigative techniques. The collected material was treated based on the Content Analysis proposed by Laurence Bardin. From this analysis it was possible to identify that, although teachers recognize the need to offer initial training that articulates specific contents and contents related to pedagogical training, there are still several factors that make it difficult to become effective. It was pointed out by the participating teachers as a difficult element for the effectiveness of this articulation the unavailability of the students for the appropriation of didactic-pedagogical knowledge that are not according to their interests or which they do not consider much necessary for their future professional practice, what is worrisome, as they are being prepared for the exercise of teaching. It was observed that the professional experience of the teachers of the course contributes to the promotion of this articulation, even though it is not yet formalized in the curricula of the courses, but it is expressed in the teaching practice. It was identified the simultaneity of two training models: the cultural-cognitive and the pedagogical-didactic content, with more emphasis on the first one, which confirms the persistence of the "3 + 1" model registered in the teachers' speech.
