Systematization of Pedagogical Experiences in the EFL Teaching Training Program

Abstract

Abstract: The study, "Systematization of Pedagogical Experiences in the EFL Teaching Training Program," aims to reflect on and analyze the positive and negative pedagogical aspects encountered during pre-professional practices as an EFL teacher and observer. The study employed a qualitative method; data were gathered through observation sheets, class planning, and narrative reflections as research instruments. The research was conducted during academic practicums, involving class observation and teaching English in three classes of basic education and bachillerato. The analysis within this research focused on pedagogical aspects such as planning, linguistic aspects, learning management, and methodology. The findings helped deepen understanding of the reality of English teaching, highlighting the complexities and challenges educators face. The analysis acknowledged positive and effective language pedagogical strategies while revealing improvement areas. Additionally, this research may enhance future EFL teachers' academic competencies, emphasizing improving students' communicative abilities. Therefore, this study not only considers the different realities of EFL instruction but also highlights the importance of systematic reflection and analysis in the professional development of educators, fostering a more informed and proficient teaching practice.
