This study explores the influence of Critical Pedagogy (CP) on pre-service English teachers' conceptualizations of bilingualism and pedagogical practices within a Bilingual Education course in Bogotá, Colombia. Traditionally, English Language Teaching (ELT) has been framed through instrumentalist and monoglossic approaches that emphasize language proficiency over critical thinking. Using a qualitative case study approach, data was collected through focus groups, field notes, digital portfolios, and a podcast series. Findings reveal a three-stage transformation: (1) a reconceptualization of bilingualism, (2) a reimagination of ELT practices, and (3) an actual implementation of CP-based methodologies in ELT classes. By fostering dialogic learning and problem-solving tasks, the course enabled pre-service teachers to challenge hegemonic ELT models and advocate for inclusive, equity-driven and culturally-based language education
