As teachers are asked to do more and more by busy and demanding parents, it further fosters collaboration and support among teachers throughout the same school building. The purpose of peer teaching is not to judge the other teachers, but to encourage mutual reflection and analysis of teaching practice. It promotes specific feedback over time, rather than monitors teaching in glimpses, like a visit from a principle. (Robbins, 1991) Selecting
