Microteaching sessions involve one student teacher, the class instructor (or school supervisor), and a small group of peers. These sessions allow student teachers to practice and polish their teaching techniques in a simulated environment before putting them into practice with students. Student teachers conduct a short lesson (usually 5 to 20 minutes in length) and then receive feedback from their peers. Microteaching sessions focus on one teaching skill at a time. Student teachers rotate through the roles of teacher and student in small groups of 4 to 5 teachers. This singular focus provides the opportunity for student teachers to master each technique by planning and teaching the same lesson multiple times, making adjustments based on peer and instructor feedback.
