Table 7. The Significant Improvements of the First Respondent The significant improvements that the first respondent did were that she
could improve set induction skill that she explained the goal of the teaching learning activities well. She also increased the verbal reinforcement skill. She used
some varieties in giving verbal reinforcement toward students’ participation. The last improvement was that she closed the teaching learning activity in a good
order. It could be assumed that the first respondent has already practiced reflective teaching and used reflection to improve her teaching skill over the time.
However, the researcher found that the first respondent has not done good job in her second teaching presentation although she has been practicing reflective
teaching and writing weekly reflections. The first respondent still needed to make
50 correction on her pronunciation. Formerly, the first respondent had well material
for set induction activity, but she decreased her set induction skill on the second teaching performance. Moreover, she did not explain the goal of the teaching and
learning activities. She also still used long and complicated instruction which could make students confused. It was also clear that she did not produce
reinforcement to the students’ participation. Furthermore, she still needed to design several kinds of questioning technique. In addition, her closing activity
should be strengthened yet she only made review by herself without asking students comprehension about the material taught.
It could be counted that the first respondent has reached 20 of significant improvements. Thus, the first respondent only did a few significant
improvements. She reached 2 improvements from 10 improvements should be done on the second teaching practice.
