This research examines the performance of pre-service teachers in the Department of Islamic Studies, College of Education, Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University, during their on-site training courses. The research analyses and evaluates the methods and strategies followed by the pre-service teachers in terms of compliance with the objectives of the College’s programs. Moreover, this research aims at identifying the relationship between the GPA of Pre-service teachers and their level of performance. The research adopts an analytical approach through analyzing and evaluating methods and strategies of teachers/students. The research is based on observing 47 students, who are carefully studied. The analysis is consolidated by interviewing seven random students of the same observed group. As a result, the research has reached some conclusions. There is a poor impact of teaching when the teacher adopts traditional methods of lecturing and introductory skills, such as adopting the blackboard, colored markers, and traditional lecturing. The research has also found that pre-service teachers/students successfully diversify the use of the assessment and consolidation skills. In addition, the research has explored a number of obstacles that hinder Pre-service teachers from adopting teaching skills, such as the skeptical attitude of some teachers towards adopting competencies and skills as well as the poor level of students/teachers in terms of training and knowledge acquisition.
