A journey through clinical education.

This opinion piece centres on my own journey through clinical education and reflects on my involvement in clinical undergraduate teaching. Utilising experiences teaching on undergraduate clinics, before and after attending the Advanced Certificate in Clinical Education through the Royal College of Surgeons in Glasgow, I address how the course has allowed me to grow and adapt my teaching style to provide the optimum learning environment for students. Particular emphasis is placed on an andragogical teaching methodology and the importance of intrinsic motivation to allow for further clinical development.
