The Teach-Back Method is an evidence-based communication strategy used in healthcare, education, and professional training to ensure that information shared with a learner or patient is clearly understood and retained. Rather than asking “Do you understand?”, the teach-back technique encourages the learner to explain the concept back in their own words, enabling the instructor to assess comprehension and clarify any misunderstandings.
