She has received excellent evaluations as a problem-based learning small group facilitator. She oversees the department’s pediatric clerkship and serves as a community health course coordinator for first–year medical students. Naguwa has developed new educational experiences and progressive tools to assess student knowlegde and skills.
"She made sure to balance the rigorous process of learning with humanistic emphasis on the patient and has a parent–like regard for the well being of her students," writes a colleage.
