Abstract:
This research is motivated by the methods and strategies used by students or preservice teachers in a learning system that focuses on English micro-teaching
courses. This study aims to explain the prepared teaching of pre-service teachers'
perceptions of the learning methods and strategies used in English micro-teaching
courses. This research uses a qualitative descriptive case study approach in its
investigation. The source of data was certain for the students of the English
Language Education Study Program at Muhammadiyah University of North
Sumatra who have completed the micro-teaching course. The research results
show that the majority of students or pre-service teachers have different learning
methods and different learning strategies in the practicum activities of English
micro-teaching courses. These lectures often require practice on how to master the
class or learning material by observing videos of pre-service teachers or students'
micro-teaching practices to support learning that is easily stimulated by the
material for students. With these aspects, English micro teaching learning,
especially for pre-service teacher students, can be realized well and is on the best
path, indicating that UMSU no longer exists and has been successful in micro
teaching learning
