Abstract

A competence teacher has an important role in students' success. Thus improving the pedagogical competence of teachers seems to be very important too. This attempt, at first hand, requires recognizing the pedagogical competence of teachers. To meet such requirement, the class of microteaching is designed to improve pre-service teachers' pedagogical competence. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to describe the EFL pre-service teachers' pedagogical competence based on the instructional approach. To cope with such problem, a case study is implemented to five microteaching classes consisting of 53 pre-service teachers. The research data were obtained through questionnaires, observation, and interview. The data validity was strengthened by conducting intensive long-term participant involvement in producing a complete and in-depth understanding of field situations, triangulation to collect converging evidence from different sources by applying either the technique triangulation and data source triangulation, and testing rival or competing explanations. Data analysis was performed by applying Interactive Analysis Model namely data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The result shows that the pre-service teachers are good at introductory and closure skills, explanation, group and individual teaching, and teaching variation, classroom management, and assessing. Hence, they are lacks on questioning and reinforcement. Therefore, it is suggested to microteaching lecturers to use this approach in the microteaching class, on the other hand, they are also suggested to focus more on those lacking aspects during the microteaching process.
