Abstract
Research has found that teachers is the most influential factor in education. The question is how to improve teaching quallity. This study investigates whether teaching quality could be divided into several stages so that development program could be tailored according to teachers' need. The eight classroom factors (orientation, structuring, modeling, application, questioning, time management, creating classroom as a learning environment, and assessment) of the dynamic model are used to conceptualize teaching quality. Classroom observation was conducted to 44 English teachers in the Provinces of Jakarta and Banten. The Rasch model and cluster analysis are used to analyze the data. The findings showed that teachers scored the lowest on orientation, structuring, modeling, and application. Teachers have started questioning, yet the questions were limited to product questions.
