Posted November 10, 2016 by drthomas01

Dr. Thomas Taylor has been teaching medical students for many years, a number of which have been spent in Houston, Texas. Here he considers the key skills needed to be an effective teacher.

 


Dr. Thomas Taylor received his medical education in the United Kingdom and spent the first few years of his career there before moving to Houston, Texas. During this time, he developed a stellar reputation, particularly for the quality of his teaching after obtaining the role of Senior Lecturer in Surgery at both Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and the University of Manchester. After moving to the United States, he continued to build on this success until he became the Chief of Postgraduate Medical Education at Baylor College of Medicine and Surgical Program Director at St Joseph Hospital. There are a number of key skills that have allowed him to enjoy such a good career in education.

Experience is something that can only be gained through time spent in your profession, but it is crucial if you are to be a good teacher. Teachers need to be able to relate what they teach to real-life scenarios, as this helps them to engage their students and deliver lessons that they can take forward into their own careers. If you have experience it is likely that you can call upon a number of scenarios you have fund yourself in to the benefit of your students and lessons.

Educators also need to be flexible in their teaching styles, as students learn in a variety of ways. Some will work better when confronted with the theoretical side of things, whereas others prefer visual stimuli and other methods. Understand the needs of your students and teach with them in mind, rather than sticking solely to the style that you are most comfortable with.

Finally, Dr. Thomas Taylor, who currently teaches in Houston, Texas, has dedicated himself to continued education in his field. This means that he is always up-to-date with the latest developments in medical technology and techniques, which he is then able to relay to his students. Falling behind in the constantly-evolving medical field can be detrimental to the careers of professionals, plus it may result in them providing substandard care to their patients. Furthermore, Taylor’s dedication to his own education is a motivator for his students as it sets an example for how they should approach their work.
