A teacher should be equipped with communicative competence and practical knowledge because he or she is responsible for the growth in students' personality and knowledge. Also pre-service teachers should enhance those competencies through teaching profession courses. Not only communication but also knowledge is valuable and meaningful only in the social and cultural context where community members interact with each other in their daily lives. It is therefore necessary to understand what narrative is and how it has effects on the competencies that pre-service teachers should improve because narrative is the representation of our lives and the best way to interpret and understand human actions. Narrative is such a story including plights that we can encourage students to establish self-esteem, to set their own targets and to have sensitivity and discerning eyes for educational scripts. It is the mode of thinking optimized for understanding human actions that motivates students to focus on what they are learning, to communicate with each other, and to control and express their feelings properly. Narrative is a cultural toolbox used to make and change culture, which means we should apply culturally acceptable teaching and learning methods to the classroom. Also the toolbox allows teachers to check their values, world views, prejudices and stereotypes, and facilitates language expressions for empathy and communication. Narrative-based teaching profession courses enable pre-service teachers to set their own goals, have responsibility for their learning, internalize knowledge, and create a learning community for meaning negotiation and problem solving.
