Teaching dental hygiene has never really been my forte. I love teaching patients about their mouths but the classroom is a little intimidating for me.
My son, Taylor, has signed me up to teach the dentistry merit badge for his Boy Scout Troop. At first I was really excited—that excitement quickly turned to anxiety. I was expecting a classroom full of non-attentive teenaged boys. Much to my surprise, my class is really inquisitive.
My first class was Monday night and I think it went pretty smoothly. I was advised not to go into too much detail and let the boys ask questions. We will be doing both hands-on experiments and visiting my office. I think I will have the boys take impressions of their hands making the Boy Scout sign and each can pour up a plaster model.
Maybe teaching isn’t so far out of my grasp after all!
Welcome to my life.
