The aim of study was analyze the contributions perceived by nursing and medical students regarding clinical simulation as a teaching method, based on Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of Autonomy. Method: a descriptive, qualitative study conducted with twelve (12) students who participated in the research project of the Advanced Research Center in Clinical Simulation at the Federal University of Mato Grosso, Sinop Campus. Data were collected through a conversation circle, transcribed, and analyzed using Laurence Bardin's content analysis technique, in light of Freire's theoretical postulates. Results: analysis of the statements and records identified three categories: apprehension of reality, dialogicity, and affectivity, aligned with the theoretical concepts of the reference author. Conclusion: The students' perceptions demonstrate correspondence with Freire's thought, reinforcing the pedagogical potential of clinical simulation in training autonomous, critical, and reflective professionals capable of understanding reality and establishing dialogic and humanized teaching.
