Microteaching is a technique which is aimed at preparing teacher-trainees for the real classroom setting. In this teaching technique the lesson delivery time is reduced (6 minutes in my case). The number of students (or observers) is also limited (5-10). Microteaching is especially used to train pre-service teachers systematically. It allows teacher-trainees to experiment and learn teaching skills like; Set Induction, Questioning, Stimulus Variation, Use of Teaching Aids, Explanation, Chalkboard, etc. This technique is especially useful because these essential skills can be learnt without encountering the chaotic environment of the crowded classes.
