The function of teachers' communication abilities in imparting their knowledge to students is crucial. Failure to acquire these skills will lead to the collapse of the classroom learning process. Numerous studies address the need to develop communication skills, but few study how to quantify teaching communication skills to future vocational teachers. This study aims to create a questionnaire and perform a validity and reliability analysis using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). This study involved 175 students at universities providing teacher education programs in Jakarta, Indonesia. This study reveals that teaching communication skills for candidate vocational teachers can be measured using the Teaching Communication Skills questionnaires for pre-service teachers (TCSQ-PST). The total TCSQ-PST items are 23 items consisting of four conflict management items, four conversation skill items, four comforting items, three persuasion items, four referential skill items, and four narrative skills items. Based on validity and reliability testing, each of the 23 items explaining teaching communication skills to candidate vocational teachers is valid and reliable. This study's findings have significant implications for judging the achievement of teaching communication skills for future teachers.
