Parallel to this novelty microteaching practice for nursing students, it requires them to be more responsible and independent in their learning process, considering cognitive, motivational, and behavioral variables of self-regulation to practice these skills effectively. Aim: To determine the effect of microteaching strategy on nursing students’ self-regulation and teaching skills. Design: pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test research design. Settings: this study was carried out in the Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Medical Surgical Nursing department.

Tools: Two tools were used. Tool one: “Self-Regulation Assessment Questionnaire ". Tool two: “Students’ teaching Skills Assessment Checklist". Results: The study showed that there was a significant improvement in students’ self-regulation level after the application of microteaching program than before (P<0.001*). Furthermore, significant improvement in students’ teaching skills level was found after the application of the strategy than before it(P<0.001*). Conclusion: Microteaching played an important role in enhancing the students’ teaching skills, which include planning the lesson, presenting it, managing classroom and handling difficulties.
