Abstract

This research paper focuses on the development of reflective skills in teaching and learning, and provides diverse possible factors to enhance reflective skills of future educators of the English language. Moreover,   some qualitative research methods  such as observations  and conducting interviews, a pre-post questionnaire to examine changes in the future English teachers' perceptions of reflective skills  were employed. According to the results, the learners  have improved their introspective skills somewhat.  To support aspiring English teachers in enhancing their reflective skills, a more regimented practice teaching program, time, and plenty of opportunities for practice and reflection are required.
