My teaching approach is student centered approach, where the needs of the students are put first. I am concerned about all aspects of their lives not just academically. My students always feel comfortable to approach with any issue of concern. I have also made it a point to inculcate in my students the central core of Nursing which is caring and building a good Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Relationship. I am a firm believer of doing unto others what you expect them to do unto you. As such irrespective of who I am in contact with I ensure that above I do no harm.
