It is critical to ensure the quality of pre-service English teachers in order to guarantee their teaching effectiveness as beginning teachers. Hence, teaching practice is a paramount program that should be included as a core course in the teacher education curriculum and be designed thoroughly. This paper aims to find an alternative model of teaching practice in Indonesia. A needs analysis of curriculum development was carried out to seek the transformed model that better prepare pre-service teachers to be ready in the workplace. The concurrent teaching practicum model is believed to better prepare pre-service English teachers as they perform experiential learning since the early stage of the four-year study to explore strategies in linking the theory and practice in real classroom contexts. Nonetheless, this initial study should be evaluated comprehensively to assure the practicality and conformity of the proposed model.
