Overview
Teaching Improvement is a two day course covering all things education, including a grounding in educational theories, the opportunity to consider your “teaching philosophy”, planning and structuring high quality teaching sessions, and delivering feedback to your learners.
On day two of this course, attendees will deliver a 10 minute “microteach” on a non-clinical topic to test out what they have learned and receive valuable feedback on their own teaching style. This interactive course will get attendees thinking differently about how they approach teaching in future.
Aim
To promote an excellent standard of teaching at UHL.

- Deliver a microteach showing implementation of principles covered on day 1
