| Descrizione: | This paper presents the systematization of the experience called “professional micro-teaching,” an activity that has been carried out non-stop over a decade with the student population of the Bachelor’s Degree in English Teaching at Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, Omar Dengo Campus and which has become an essential, successful, and significant project for the students in training as well as for the senior citizens who have been part of the English workshops taught each cycle. The methodological strategy was based on a phenomenological approach, and the instrument administered was mixed, so it included close and open-ended questions, and seven different sections related to personal and demographic information; attitudes of the students in training; classroom management; language use; materials and resources utilized; teaching methodology and characteristics of the activities implemented; strengths and areas of improvement. The information gathered shows that throughout time, the micro-teaching has been a relevant in-service learning process for the development of teaching skills in the students in training, which, in turn, has also positively impacted a vulnerable population that generally does not have access to educational settings tailored to their specific needs. |
