Reflective Evaluation on Teaching English |
Concept of Reflective Teaching |
Reflective teaching is “an approach to teaching and to teacher education which is based on the assumption that teachers can improve their understanding of teaching and the quality of their own teaching by reflecting critically on their teaching experiences” (Richards & Lockhart, 2000:391). |
Importance of Reflective Teaching |
From reflective teaching, we can examine our teaching experiences; we are better informed of the various aspects of our teaching; we can improve our teaching skills; and we can become more competent and confident when trying new teaching methods. Reflection leads to improvement and success. |
