This study was performed to find out the characteristics of good teaching practice in universities. After analyzing the learning experiences of 30 undergraduate students in S university in Korea, and 20 undergraduate students from overseas universities as well, we compared the characteristic elements for good teaching. The results commonly suggested that the content of lectures, teaching skill of faculties, motivation of active learning and active communication between faculty and students were important elements for good teaching. It was noted that the undergraduate students in S university included professionalism of contents knowledge, enthusiasm and sincerity of the faculty giving the lecture, whereas the undergraduate students from overseas universities proposed the addition of interdisciplinary subjects, content knowledge, intimate rapport with students and faculty, and care and understanding for students. Particularly, the undergraduate students from oversea universities considered the external factors, such as student learning support systems of tutorial and
peer-advising were essential requisites for good teaching.
