The development of 21st century abilities necessitates satisfying students' needs. Preservice teachers may find it difficult to meet the criteria. Responsive teaching needs to take precedence to effectively meet student needs. As a result, it is essential to consider how preservice teachers view this issue. This chapter first sets to highlight some of the issues preservice teachers face during microteaching in a mathematics classroom. Next, it looks at possible ways to promote responsiveness by using 21st century skills. It further discusses some solutions, suggestions, and recommendations based on the highlighted issues. Specifically, this chapter aims to identify ways for preservice teachers to contribute to teaching mathematics in a more creative way based on their responsiveness in microteaching. Finally, input is provided to educators on how to meet the output of responsive teaching by applying classroom microteaching strategies.
