    What is the main reason for this research paper? It was also noticed that there was already a research project focused on the difficulties found while developing the Practice Teaching in the CENIUES English Program. Even though the information was related to the topic under study, the group considered that there is some sort of novelty because the research is focused on a different environment. The present research Project aims to describe a study about the tutor-teacher’s role upon student-teachers developing their practicum in the PNC English Teaching program and in some subjects of the B.A of English Teaching at the Foreign Language Department in the University of El Salvador. This report describes the way in which the appropriate development of the tutor-teacher’s role can affect student-teachers’ performance during the development of the entire practice teaching period. Tutoring is an activity that can be beneficial when it is given in appropriate ways. This process is very important especially when student-teachers are developing their teaching skills because it gives the students the opportunities to build confidence and increase their classroom management. There has been inconsistence from tutor-teachers when complying with their roles. This paper will also explain the process followed by the research team to collect meaningful and effective information regarding the real role of tutor-teachers assigned a student-teacher. For carrying out this present study, the research questions were answered by surveys and interviews. These questionnaires were useful to collect information about the point of view of tutor-teachers and student-teachers about the role of tutor teachers while mentoring students developing their practice teaching. With the implementation of this, the researchers were able to obtain and compare information about the main findings to respond the research questions.
