After taking the first assessment called “Learning Style Inventory”, by seeing the results, it shows

my Visual learner skills were the highest. I am a person who is organized and have a calendar to write all

my assignments due dates. I do get distracted when it comes to having noise in the classroom. Being a

visual learner is they are good at remembering things. But not all students are in this category. Everybody

has different learning strategies. My second learning skills are “Auditory Learner”. I am a person who

prefers to work independently to reduce distraction. I am not able to concentrate when I hear noise. I get

distracted easily. My Least learning strategy is “Kinesthetic Learner”. I usually don’t communicate with

others. Only with teachers if needed. I think this is not good for my future students. They need to be able

to communicate with others to be socialized.

Here are the results for “Personality Max” is shows my top three intelligences are: visual,

intrapersonal and kinesthetic. Overall people with visual are intelligence, also aware of their

surroundings and good at remembering. Intrapersonal is people who try to figure things out them

self’s. There own goals, motivations and feelings. I am surprised results show I’m intelligence in

kinesthetic learning. They learn through movement and experiment. I don’t think my results

were so good. I feel at times, it’s hard to believe your own results.

Here are the results for my last site. It shows I am a Global and analytic thinker. I need to be able

to improve on my strategies because students will follow my instructions and I should be able to

interact with each other even though I don’t do it much. It’s very important to improve my skills

in order to be a great teacher for my students.
