It is a systematic way of documenting learning and collecting information for self-analysis and reflection which promoting the development of language learning successfully . Both teacher and learner are always eager to think and to analyze what they have taught and learned in the classroom by relating to their previous experiential knowledge and received knowledge.

The teacher scaffold the task by asking some questions which refer to what learning experience, the learning experience process, the reason of the learning experience and the solution. Writing learning journal can give a wealth of information on how to bridge the gap between teaching and learning; is to give a trust to develop cognitive and metacognitive, psychomotor and to express their attitudes and feeling in learning process; a feedback of teaching learning process and the teacher in a consequence are probably to do reflection on how the students learned and what they learned. Gebhard ( 1997, p.45) empahasized that gaining awareness of how one teaches in the classroom could be empowering. If teachers get good information about the way they conduct their classes they will have more freedom to “ direct their own teaching towards successful student learning.” Reflection can be done by using some strategies, for instance teacher self -evaluation, peer-observation , journal/diary, and (5) recording lesson. This strategies can be done both teacher and students in teaching and learning process.
