×<p class="MsoNormal" xss=removed><span lang="EN-US" xss=removed>Reflective practice, as defined by Farrell (2015), involves
teachers critically examining their professional practices, and reflecting on
the philosophies, beliefs, and theories that shape their actions both inside
and outside the classroom. This reflective process is essential during teaching
practicum experiences, as it helps pre-service teachers refine their instructional
approaches while deepening their understanding of the guiding values and
theories behind their teaching. This qualitative case study aimed to explore
how three pre-service English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers reflected on
their experiences during their teaching practicum, using the framework for
reflective practice as an analytical tool. The study also aimed to assess the
influence of reflective activities on the participants’ future careers. Data
were collected through classroom observations, written reflection, and
follow-up interviews, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The result showed
that throughout their practicum, the participants engaged in reflection,
critically evaluating their beliefs and expressing them through the stages of philosophy,
principles, theory, practice, and beyond practice. These stages were interrelated,
revealing common themes while also highlighting the complex relationship
between the teachers’ articulated principles and their actual classroom
practices. The study further indicated that reflective practice had a positive
impact on the participants’ teaching experiences during the practicum and is
likely to shape their future teaching careers. The findings offer valuable
insight for other pre-service EFL teachers, encouraging them to incorporate
reflective practices into their own teaching experiences.</span></p>
