Abstract
The article examines the importance of the pedagogical self-efficacy formation of future teachers for working with students with special educational needs, analyzes the influence of a teacher's professional self-efficacy on their self-regulation, and indicates possible options for working with students in the direction of the formation of future teachers of special education pedagogical self-efficacy. It was determined that the concept of «pedagogical self-efficacy» is an integrative education expressed in the teacher's confidence in his own professional competence, the ability to productively carry out pedagogical activities, choosing such means of pedagogical influence that ensure the successful achievement of the goals of the educational process. It was made the conclusion that pedagogical self-efficacy is one of the most important aspects of teacher’s professional training. In this key Social-cognitive theory by Albert Bandura was analysed.
