Abstract

This preliminary study was aimed to explore the perceptions of English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher about watching his of own performance on video. The primary objective of this study was to gain an in-depth understanding of video-based reflection influences teacher development. The qualitative data was gathered through a reflective journal and semi-structured interview of an in-service EFL teacher, which the data analyzed using the thematic analysis. The result yielded that video-based reflection is a valuable component as self-evaluation to assist the teacher in being aware in the teaching program. Reflecting through video helped the teacher to gain a new perspective and define the teacher’s strengths and weakness in real situations. Overall, video-based reflection may have a positive effect on the teacher to enhance professional development.
