Share Experiences

Everyone remembers a teacher who inspired them at some point in their education. Whether it was their depth and breadth of knowledge, their empathy and kindness in helping you learn, or their dedication and passion for what they were doing, they made you want to be like them.

Nursing students also need inspiring teachers who are able to share their experiences as practicing nurses from the heartbreak and stress of losing a patient to the joys of welcoming a new baby into the world.

Teaching also provides an opportunity to share your specialized knowledge and wisdom that comes from real-life experiences.
