Systematization of pedagogical experiences in the EFL teaching training program

Abstract

Abstract: This systematization has the purpose to analyze and reflect on the pre-professional practices as an English pre-service teacher. It serves to strengthen and consolidate the competencies that a future teacher needs to become a better professional. To carry out this analysis, it was necessary to describe and reflect on different classes performed in Basic Education and Bachillerato as an observer and main teacher focused on planning, linguistic aspects, learning management and methodology. Moreover, five English lesson plans were analyzed. All this information was considered from the portfolios of each Practicum course and the documents proposed. This work used a qualitative design because it attempts to explore in depth the classes observed and performed, through the description and reflection to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the teaching practice. As main conclusion systematization contributed to improve the teaching skills because it gave the opportunity to the pre- service teacher to notice the weaknesses to be changed and strengths to be reinforced to perform meaningfully in the professional field.
