Abstract
Many health care professionals don't teach because they were never taught how to organize and present teaching material. To do this effectively requires knowledge of how to assess learner needs, develop a teaching plan, conduct a class, and evaluate both learner progress and program effec tiveness. Equally as important are the interpersonal skills, attitudes, and techniques used by the teacher to capture student interest and facilitate learning. This paper describes both the art and science of teaching effectiveness to help the health care provider who was not born a good teacher to become one.Keywords
