These qualities with an emphasis on the student’s personality and professional development should be achieved through the process of self-development and self-planning.

The preparation of psychologists also includes their acquaintance to methodical problems of teaching activity, training to skills of teaching. Teaching practice in psychology is directed to the development of a set of methods and techniques of didactic work. The concept of reflection is an important system-building attribute of these processes. The structure of teaching practice consists of several modules with specific problems. Each module comes to the end with the analysis of performance by the student of corresponding teaching function. The analysis of performance is carried out by probationers of teaching function by the special criteria. Activation of a valuable metareflective position can be considered as the precondition of student's methodical skill. In this article different techniques and procedures which contribute to intensive development of students’ reflexive position are shown. The reflective model of training is focused on the professional growth and on the actualization of personal potential of the student. After studies in sequential strategy of directed reflection the output.
