Practical experience is a cornerstone of effective teacher preparation, as it bridges the gap between theory and real-world application in the classroom. The effectiveness of teacher training programs is crucial to ensuring that future educators are well-prepared to meet the challenges of modern classrooms. However, a gap often exists between the theoretical knowledge acquired in university and the real-world challenges faced by would be teachers at schools. The aim of the article: The aim of this article is to presenta and analyze common issues faced by graduates from the «English Language and Literature» program during their school practice throughout three academic years, starting in autumn 2022. The study identifies the main challenges faced by these graduates during their school visits and explores the areas in which their professional preparation can be enhanced. Methodology: The research was conducted using a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data. An anonymous survey with selected and constructed responses was administered to three cohorts of students in their final year of bachelor’s program throughout 2022-2025 to assess their assessment of pedagogical practice. In total, 124 students participated in the research. Scientific novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its examination of main challenges of teaching practice at school in the time of full-scale military actions as viewed by student-teachers. The study identifies key factors that affect the satisfaction with the teaching experience thus enabling the transition from teacher training to actual classroom practice. Conclusions: The study concludes that after three years of studying and doing field practice in the context of permanent stress students have managed to adjust to the current situation and switch their focus from external factors of providing teaching practice to the process of doing the practice itself viewing lesson preparation and presentation as the main challenge and the main sourse of satisfaction with teaching practice.
