The advent of online teaching and learning as new innovation in education has brought in a new phase in classroom activities and has promoted human capital development in the world of education This paper is set to advocate for reformation of microteaching from face-to-face classroom teaching to electronic teaching through various social media platforms such as zoom, WhatsApp, YouTube, twitter, telegram. This is necessary in order to reduce some of the complexities involved in face-to-face micro teaching such as overcrowding and noisy atmosphere emanating from the trainee teachers, irregular power supply, lack of laboratory facilities/devices and competent technologist in the micro teaching laboratory. The study examined some reasons for adopting e- micro teaching, conceptual clarification, relevance and challenges of e-micro teaching were studied. The researcher recommended that every teacher training institution should equip their micro teaching laboratory with all necessary technology gadgets and provide constant electricity power supply, employ well trained micro teaching specialist and competent Technologist to man the micro teaching laboratory.
