Taking into consideration the growth in the graduation courses of Occupational Therapy in the country, the academic career was as a new fi eld of action. In recent decades there has been an increase for the search of strictu-sensu postgraduation and professionals have sought improvement to the teaching career. The study aims to refl ect on the training of occupational therapists to teaching, from the experience of the supervised training on teaching in the Program of Teaching Improvement, with a graduate course in Occupational Therapy at University of São Paulo, during the fi rst semester of 2012. The experience was reported according to the activities developed: organizational, didactic-pedagogical, technical, teacher/student relations and evaluation. It was noticed that the activities experienced are essential in teaching training. In addition, this training needs to be encouraged beyond the research, including a pedagogical preparation in the graduation and post graduation courses. The research activities, teaching and extension, developed by the teachers must merge under an integral perspective, promoting the teaching-learning spaces in the refl ection, changing and meaning spaces.
