The purpose of this paper is to propose inter-reflection as an improvement for university teaching. For this purpose, a documentary research was carried out to describe and quantify the competences that a reflective teacher must have, as well as the processes that he/she follows in his/her reflection; thus establishing the state of the art of pedagogical reflection in general and focused on university education, mentioning how the implication of a reflective teacher can support and improve university teaching and its results, that is, the students who see their learning boosted and improved in their academic development. This work concludes that by implementing reflective teaching or, in other words, inter-reflection in university teaching, teachers can carry out their work in an updated and innovative manner in their respective areas. By being in constant reflective and objective criticism and constant changes, they achieve that their pedagogical practice is always up to date, allowing in turn a good performance with the students.
