From this on, it was finally picked 8 octo-finalists to advance on the next day’s round.
On the next day, the octo-final round and micro teaching performance were underway. The 8 octo-finalists should perform an extemporaneous speech while the micro teaching finalists performed their lesson plans in front of the judges.
