Questions they asked in three lessons during their teaching practice were analysed according to the question types of Sahin and Kulm (2008) framework. The findings indicated that in addition to factual, guiding and probing questions; self-answered, yes/no and general questions emerged from the data. Furthermore, there were differences in the variety of question types used by the pre-service teachers and the most remarkable difference was in probing questions.
