Pharmacy Technician Educator | Sterile Compounding Specialist

Roger R.

I hold over 15 years of experience as a pharmacy technician educator, supported by advanced credentials including the CPhT-Adv and CSPT certifications. My educational background and professional training have allowed me to develop deep expertise in pharmacy practice, sterile compounding, regulatory compliance, and technician skill development.

Throughout my career, I have taught and mentored learners across a wide range of settings, including college-level classroom instruction, one-on-one tutoring, skills-based laboratory training, and structured clinical education. I currently serve as the Clinical Education Director at South Texas College, where I oversee student placement, collaborate closely with preceptors, and ensure that learners receive high-quality, hands-on training aligned with ASHP/ACPE standards.

My teaching approach focuses on clarity, structured learning, and real-world application. I tailor my methods to the needs of each student-whether they are new to the field or advancing their skills-using a combination of guided explanation, scenario-based practice, and step-by-step skill reinforcement. I have worked with adult learners of various ages and backgrounds, helping them build confidence, master foundational concepts, and prepare for both academic success and professional certification.

This combination of formal education, advanced credentials, and extensive teaching experience enables me to tutor effectively in areas such as pharmacy calculations, pharmacology, sterile compounding, law and ethics, medication safety, and technician exam preparation.
