The teaching practice course is an important part of the teacher’s training process. The process is carried out primarily by the cooperation of different institutions, including students and teachers. This research aims to reveal the opinions of students and teachers about the application process. In the 2018-2019 academic year, 248 students and 62 teachers of practice participated in the teaching practice process at the Faculty of Theology of the University of Ankara.
