This research aims to describe the difficulties of the pre-service teacher in designing and implementing inquiry learning in senior high school. A case study design was used for this research. Three pre-service teachers were interviewed and observed to determine the distressing point. This research finds all of the respondents started to design learning inquiry from finding some examples of the inquiry learning process on the internet or senior thesis report and imitated that in their lesson plan. This reflected they had the problem of a doubt what the inquiry process looks like. Along with their self-research about inquiry process illustrations, some of them tried to get the clue in the published article on the internet. It took several weeks to self-analyze what they found on the internet. The majority of problems is lack of English understanding. For the implementation process, most of them were able to run the teaching but all of them had a problem with applying the assessment process. Most of them thought the assessment process was just in the formative assessment, not along with the learning process. This research also concludes if they still have much lack of skill in guiding the students in inquiry learning using guided questions.
