Probably one of the most surprising things about my experience
with the clinical skills teaching course is that the learning began long before
the class had begun. The questions in the application started me thinking
months in advance about the challenges, successes and failures I have
experienced as a learner and a teacher throughout my residency career. These
reflections even made their way into my interviews for post-residency
hospitalist positions. I began to realize just how vital teaching is to my identity
as a physician and I started to explore the ways in which I could incorporate
teaching into my future career. As an attending I will have the opportunity to
precept medical students and I hope to also help introduce formal didactics
such as journal club to my hospitalist group.

One of the most important aspects
of medicine is life-long learning, and participation in courses such as this
one not only deliver teaching of valuable concepts which residents can use
every day, but also fosters engagement in the life-long learning culture.
