the pedagogical role of teaching physician

In this article, an exhaustive exploration of the pedagogical role of the teaching physician in the training of medical students in obstetric emergency care was carried out. The research, based on interviews with teaching physicians specializing in this field, revealed a central thesis that highlights the crucial importance of the teaching physician as a guide, leader, and ethical role model in the training process. In response to common challenges, such as variability in clinical experience and time management, adaptive and flexible approaches were identified as effective strategies. Adaptation emerged as a key element to personalize teaching, incorporating realistic simulations, problem-based learning and educational technologies. While the promotion of active participation and hands-on learning, through interactive scenarios and discussions based on real cases, was established as essential in the educational process. The inclusion of ethics and cultural sensitivity in teaching was recognized as a key factor in training culturally competent medical professionals.
