Summary/Abstract: This study aims to examine the levels of self-efficacy for teaching among the teacher candidates from the Department of Physical Education and Sports Teaching. For this purpose, "Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale" was applied on 94 students from the School of Physical Education and Sports. The scale has 3 dimensions which are “self-efficacy for ensuring student participation", "self-efficacy for teaching strategies" and "self-efficacy for classroom management". As descriptive statistics, arithmetic average and standard deviation statistics were used to analyse the data. The examination of statistical values regarding the students' answers to the statements in each factor reveals that teacher candidates have a very high level of self-efficacy for increasing the participation of students who do not have much interest in the class, for providing talented students with convenient learning atmosphere and for taking under control the behaviours that can negatively affect the classroom atmosphere.
