The COVID-19 epidemic, which affects the functioning of institutions in almost every field, has also affected pre-service teacher education. In this process, unlike the traditional practice, pre-service teachers carried out the teaching practice with distance education. However, since the application was sudden, urgent and new, it could not be adequately evaluated. In this research, it is aimed to examine the pre-service teachers’ experiences of teaching practice with distance education in the COVID-19 process. The research was designed as a case study. Research data were obtained by semi-structured interview and observation forms. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive, and content analysis methods. The participants are seven pre-service teachers and two practice teachers who guide these candidates. According to the results of the research, it has been revealed that pre-service teachers give distance education according to their own possibilities and adapt to the process in teaching practice. However, it was determined that they faced some problems in preparation, classroom management, teaching process and using technology. It is expected that future applications will be more effective if pre-service teachers receive training on distance education, are supported with distance education tools, and their infrastructure problems are resolved.
