Summary/Abstract: The aim of our study consists in developing a unitary model of pedagogical competencies of pre-service mother tongue teachers. There are presented the results of the exploratory research that consisted in the administration of a semi-structured interview to 58 language teachers’ trainers from pre-university and university education. The aim of the research is to explore the conceptions of language teachers’ trainers referring to the development of pedagogical competencies in initial training programs. The product of this study’s effort in identifying the pedagogical competencies for preparing the future mother tongue educators represents a challenge for the effectiveness of teacher education.
