Week after week of attending my VN program, I became energized with all sorts of instructional strategies that I had learned.  Whenever I made classroom walk-through observations, I looked for proven practices such as differentiated student clusters and scaffolding instruction, along with word walls and print-rich environments… all designed to improve students’ abilities.

Even though I was a certified nursing assistant and worked in a hospital for a while, I thought I knew all that there was to know about nursing.  I was stunned to discover how little I did know after my first term in the VN program.  Meta-cognitive skill patterns vary among students who are new to subjects such as pharmacology, and medical-surgical nursing.  They are also so diverse among those who have learning disabilities.

With the help of all our well-qualified and experienced teachers, it was simple and easy to learn these strategies.  Today, I am a strong proponent of having all nursing teachings I could possibly receive.  I believe that even superintendents and school board members should get it.  As they issue instructional policies to teachers, it behooves them to have a better understanding of the subject.

Teaching nursing is not easy.  It’s not so much that teaching students to read that is so difficult; the challenge is teaching them to comprehend.  With this in mind, I believe that learning how to teach nursing is a commitment that all educators – from a superintendent to a teaching assistant – should make.

Classroom discussion and students’ projects were great opportunities for me to learn jointly with my fellow students on how theories can be applied and extended to build a more effective and competitive level.  As an Asian-Indian boy, I was very excited by the chance to work with diverse students and to explore with them the challenges of learning new skills of nursing.

Nursing is not only a significant career change for me, it is also a long-time dream.  I chose Bay Area College of Nursing because of its excellent academic reputation and its approach in the application of nursing care.

“This has been the perfect place for me.  The faculty is knowledgeable an accessible.  They not only allow students to engage them in meaningful conversations about school, but life in general and most importantly in significant current issues.” 

Not only have I had excellent clinical and classroom experiences, but I have been afforded the opportunity to creatively apply what I have learned to the needs of the patient at the bedside and to the global community.
