Teacher education programs currently employ diverse models that emphasize learner-centered acquisition, varied teaching and learning modes, and assessment practices. The study implements a reflective framework that integrates classroom observation, microteaching, and supervisory practice to connect theory with classroom experience. A checklist and case study demonstrate the effectiveness of the course design and assessment approach, with concluding remarks offering practical suggestions. Acknowledgements are provided.
