Pre-service teacher’s perceptions on the quality of middle /high school English instruction: Focused on importance and readiness

The purpose of the study is to compare the differences in perception of ‘importance’ and ‘performance’ of good instruction and to find out how these perceptions differ depending on whether they take a teaching course, their teaching practicum experience, and their willingness to pursue a teaching career. For this purpose, 63 students attending the English education department were surveyed. The main results were as follows: In the perception of the ‘importance’ and ‘performance’ of each element for good instruction, the average of ‘importance’ related to ‘class objectives and directions,’ ‘teaching contents and class operation’ and that of ‘teaching characteristics’ were almost the same. Furthermore, the average of ‘practice’ of factors related to ‘teaching objectives and directions’ were similar to that of ‘practice’ of the factors related to ‘teaching contents and class operation’. However, the average of ‘practice’ related to ‘teacher characteristics’ was slightly higher.
