Exploring Learning and Personality Profile: Strengths, Weaknesses

In my research to find my own personality and learning preferences, I have found very interesting results that made me realize things I didn't know. I used two different sources such as VARK to find my way of learning and the Myers-Briggs test that showed me my personality. I also found my type of temperament from my personality.

The first source VARK showed me my learning strengths and weaknesses. The learning form I was very strong at was visual learning. What this means is that I enjoy going to class and watching different types of graphs and presentations with images. I can remember pictures very well to the subjects. My mind tends to remember more when I see major points of what I’m learning in highlighted or bold words on charts and graphs. Knowing this about my self will help me out in school a lot because now I know how I can study. I will know how to grasp information better in my brain by seeing eye-catching notes. VARK also showed me my leaning weakness and that is reading, writing, and hearing. Lacking reading and writing skills towards learning is difficult. I hate reading a book because I can read it three to five times over and over again and tend not to realize or memorize what I am reading. My mind just flies by the words in the sentences and I often find my self-getting to a different topic. Lacking in hearing skills is challenging, for example when the teacher talks I often have to create pictures in my mind about the topic so I can be able to connect sense into my brain. Ways that I can overcome these weaknesses is training my self to listen more. I could also try and take notes to what I'm listening and also read over my notes every day to help me memorize.

The source I used to find my personality was the Jung Typology Test. It is the same as the Myers-Briggs test but the affordable alternative. When you take this test it gives you four different letters that describe you. My four different letters where INFJ. “I” stand for introversion this means I tend to re-energize myself when I am alone. When I am alone I can concentrate better and think better of my life. Indifference from an extrovert person who chooses to get their energy when they socialize with other people. I don't like to socialize very often because I find that it drains my energy when I do.

My second letter was “N” and that is intuition. I am intuitive by knowing what’s right by solving everything my self. Third descriptive word is “F” for feeling this means I tend to make a decision within my feelings towards something. Very much like intuition, my choices revolve on my feelings towards making my decisions. In contrast, I don’t think the reason for my decision I just pensive what to do. The last word is “J” for judging this means I take work seriously and then have fun later. I plan everything I can when it comes to going out or doing homework. I always plan ahead because I love to be in charge. I have a temperament of an idealist. I am “the counselor” for people and this is beneficial to my career I seek to pursue. Being a more people person and loving to help is what a dentist is all about. This really helps me with my career choice because I know that with me being a dentist I won't lack those skills. I love to bring my best in others and by helping them reach a perfect smile it would mean the world to me.

In conclusion, I have learned many things about my self that I didn't know before. For example, I have learned about my strengths and weaknesses and also learned my personality type. I have discovered my personality type goes very well to my future career of a dentist. My thinking towards myself has changed drastically. What I think about my self now is completely diffrent from the beggining scince ive started my reasearch. I feel more aware of my self as a student to open my mind to other ways of learnign and being succesful.
