During teaching practice, student teacher self-assessed their own test and provided written account on their reflecting, were aware of strengths and weaknesses of problems they initially posed. In general, student teachers to re-construct initially posed problem according to mathematical complexity. In particular, they revised instructions and formats of those problem.
