How Children's Personalities Affect their Learning Style (Teachers)

Children may learn, communicate, and make decisions in a style markedly different from teachers. Using techniques based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) and the Murphy-Meisgier Type Indicator® (MMTI), two widely used personality assesment tools, we will:

  • Identify personality strengths and how they affect learning
  • Discover your own personal teaching/learning preferences
  • Look at specific ways to improve communication in the classroom
  • Find out how to best reach students when dealing with multiple personalities in the classrroom
Jim's MBTI Background:

Jim is a certified presenter of MBTI and MMTI materials, and received his training from Otto Kroeger and Janet Thuesen. One option is to have all teachers take the MBTI prior to the seminar. The test provides data and insights that can add to the seminar's benefits. Jim can provide the materials and direction you need to pre-test your staff.
