One Core Strategy for Teaching in a Dental Hygiene Program

The more I’m in education and working with students, the more I realize that being a great professor and instructor is both a science and an art. There is so much research, study, and science behind teaching and how textbooks say is the best ways to deliver information. But, with practice and experience, the art side comes into teaching on how to best resinate with your specific students.

But, one of the biggest take aways I’ve seen and experienced with success in teaching is understanding and seeing the college experience through your students eyes. Life is completely different today than it was 20 years ago, let alone 1 year ago. As you’re educating your students, look at their lives and perspectives to see what will really resinate with them.
