1. Reflective exercise
Take five minutes to reflect on a preceptor or mentor you had in the past……
What is their name and where did you meet them?
In what stage of your career did you encounter them?
What makes them stand out from other mentors/preceptors?
How did their teaching style affect your learning?
What did they do to make learning meaningful but fun?
If you could write them a note what would you thank them for?
YOU HAVE DEDICATED A LOT OF TIME AND ENERGY IN BECOMING AN EFFECTIVE, PROFICIENT CLINICIAN. BY CONTINUED ATTENTION TO COMUNICATION SKILLS, CAREFUL UNGOING ANALYSIS, SKILLFUL PRACTICE, TEACHING AND BUILDING MOTIVATION, YOUR EFFECTIVENESS AS A PRECEPTOR WILL ALSO GROW!!

2. Reflective exercise
Think of a time when someone gave you negative feedback or even criticism in public.
How did it make you feel?
What was your reaction?
How did you act towards that person after that encounter?
What could have been done differently?
