Learning Style

I am a visual learner - I learn by seeing pictures and analyzing charts and graphs, I can't deal well with distraction when studying.

In order to become a better Auditory learner, I should try studying using Auditory methods to attune my brain to that kind of learning.

To be better at kinesthetic learning, I should practice making models and using tangible objects to help me study and learn.

Personality Indicator

My Personality type is ISTJ, which means Introvert, Sensate, Thinker, Judger. I prefer working alone, and I don't have as many problems dealing with complex or exact work, I try to do the thing that has worked before, and decide what is right. I prefer thinking over doing, and I asses based on previous experiences.

The ISTJ personality type is thought to be the most abundant, making up around 13% of the population. Their defining characteristics of integrity, practical logic and tireless dedication to duty make ISTJs a vital core to many families, as well as organizations that uphold traditions, rules and standards, such as law offices, regulatory bodies and military. People with the ISTJ personality type enjoy taking responsibility for their actions, and take pride in the work they do – when working towards a goal, ISTJs hold back none of their time and energy completing each relevant task with accuracy and patience.ISTJs don't make many assumptions, preferring instead to analyze their surroundings, check their facts and arrive at practical courses of action. ISTJ personalities are no-nonsense, and when they've made a decision, they will relay the facts necessary to achieve their goal, expecting others to grasp the situation immediately and take action. ISTJs have little tolerance for indecisiveness, but lose patience even more quickly if their chosen course is challenged with impractical theories, especially if they ignore key details – if challenges becomes time-consuming debates, ISTJs can become noticeably angry as deadlines tick nearer.
