Could you ever see youself being a classroom teacher

Published

and do you think you would be a good one, since a lot of what nurses do is educate people, why or why not?

Specializes in MDS/ UR.

No, no, no. I would go screaming off into the night,.

Teaching is a great virtue. To show the new generation the way, to help to raise a new, respectful and good generation is a great thing to do in this life. Yes I can see myself as a teacher.

Specializes in orthopedic/trauma, Informatics, diabetes.

Funny. I was teacher before I was a nurse. One thing teaching has helped with is that I will get up and talk in front of just about anyone. It really helps you understand different learning styles. My plan is to try and get into nursing education. We shall see!!!!

Specializes in geriatrics.

Yes. I really enjoy teaching and learning. The greater part of my day involves patient teaching and educating staff who have recently moved to full scope in their practice.

I don't think I would continue nursing if I couldn't teach in some capacity.
