REFLECTION ON GROUP 1MICRO TEACHING
(Aug 08, 2015)
Teaching context:
Level: Grade 10Lesson: VOLUNTARY WORK
Skill : Speaking
1. Strength
- Teacher tried to dress well and the lesson is designed with
clear and
correct procedures.
- Activities were quite various and logic.
2. Weakness- There is no classroom description, no approach
introduction, no
information about learners. Therefore, there is no reason to
reflect the
interactiveness of the topic.
a. Prespeaking activities
- Warm up activity is wellprepared to engage students to the
topic.
- Preteaching vocabulary is effective but teacher did not give
clear
instructions to students in the matching game, leading to
students
misguided to get ideas for their speaking activities later on,
andteacher missed the target of activities.
b. Whilespeaking
- Teacher used ALM approach to deliver model conversation.
ALM
works very well if teacher want to practice a structure and
help
students form new habit of using new structure. Personally, I
find this
approach inappropriate to teach preintermediate level because
this
level has enough essential structure to produce a sentence
without
model sentences. Moreover, there is no specific structure
focused in
this lesson and ALM become time consuming.
- There is no context for speaking.
3. Suggestions
- Put students in group more and let them elicit the main ideas
rather
than prepare all main ideas for speaking.

- Teacher should give clear description of classroom background
such
as class size, learners to select the approach and techniques,
the topic
and content.
- If the teacher chooses an authentic topic, material should b
authentic
then. Procedure should be more interactive with context in real
life.
