It is very important that you practice your lecture before presenting the subject to the class. It's helpful to practice in front of the mirror so you have a better idea how you are going to present the subject to the class. When you catch the mistakes during your practice sessions, you will not make the same mistakes again when you are teaching the materials to the students. And most definitely, you will feel more confident teaching the subject.

It very importatnt to act on what we teach because our students will be able to see us through our gestures and our way of communicating the information in the class and in the clinical settings. We need to show the studens the way, and be a good role model to our students. It is very importatnt to be consistent with what we teach and relay that information to the big picture and apply the concept to the clinical settings. :-)
