The instrument used to investigate the research was an interview. It was chosen by the researcher because an interview is one of the major gathering data
of the study and also to validate observations Lodico et al. 2006. It could be done by a person or group of persons. According to Seliger and Shohamy 1989,
an interview is conducted to get information from the subject by talking to them. The respondents were selected based on their answers in the questionnaires that
had been distributed before on June 20

support and confirm the results of questionnaires about the extent to which the students display their autonomy and how the reflection facilitates learner
autonomy in the Micro Teaching class of the English Language Education Study Program in Sanata Dharma University.
The interview was done on July 4

experiences to the interviewer. It could be done after the researcher analyzed the questionnaire. The interviewer formulated some questions to guide the interviewer
to get opinions from the respondents. Creswell 2003 says that interview involves open-ended questions which are intended to elicit views and opinions from the
participant of the study. The data of interviewed would be more specific and also personal. There were four main points which guided the researcher to do an
