Micro teaching, one of the most frequently used methods in the pre-service education of teachers, is used in many lectures for the training of teachers in the faculties of education in Turkey. Micro teaching is a teaching method which is especially used in the pre-service training of teachers and it aims to train prospective teachers by making systematic trials in terms of their teaching behaviours. However, because of various reasons, some problems are encountered in the implementation of this method. In this research, it is aimed to evaluate the status of the use of micro teaching method, according to opinions of the primary school teacher candidates. The study was figured as an action research in survey type. The semi-structured interviewing technique was used to collect data in the research. 24 students studying in the department of primary school teacher training in a public university in spring semester of 2012-2013 education year participated in the research. Volunteering was the basis of the selection of the students. The semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher was used as a means of collecting data. Descriptive analysis was used to analyse the data. In the research, it was concluded that except for one course, the micro teaching method is not used in the teacher training courses. The participants have expressed that they find the micro teaching method, which is implemented in only one lecture, very useful in many ways and proposed the use of micro teaching method in all education lectures.
