This research, of qualitative approach, aimed mainly at raising theoretical-methodological possibilities to teachers of English in initial education, within distance education context. The guiding presupposition of the research was that, regarding quality, there must not be difference between the practices offered by distance and in-site education, in relation to interaction, effective use of language and heterogeneity as learning enablers. The execution of this study is justified by the necessity of a theoretical-practical basis which could provide an adequate initial education for teachers of English as a foreign language in distance education contexts, necessity that was expanded by the fact that the researcher was entrusted the designing of an extension course, via distance education, in order to minimize the difficulties presented by future teachers. This problem situation demanded the raising of the legal framework concerning the demands related to the learning of foreign languages of Brazilian elementary and secondary school students; from this information, it was possible to determine the most relevant aspects of the teacher initial education, which include literacy practices, didactic transposition, and the constitution of a profile that embraces critical and reflexive thinking, autonomy, flexibility and professionalism. The raising of the most commonly adopted foreign language teaching approaches was also carried out, leading to the conclusion that the integration of task-based learning (RICHARDS & RODGERS, 2014; SCHLATTER, 2009; SCHLATTER & GARCEZ, 2012) with Kumaravadivelu's (1994) postmethodproposals is in accordance with the demands of foreign language teacher education, as for the language knowledge and for the pedagogical components. The research focused on the interaction in distance education, characterized by the use of information and communication technologies. The conclusion was that the high level of students' heterogeneity noticed in distance education, instead of being an obstacle, can be a learning potential factor in English lessons, for it offers rich opportunities for interactional movements, mediated by technological resources.
