ToczekMultipleIntelligencesSurvey

back to personal page

My results for the Multiple Intelligences survey agree with what I thought the outcome would be. As an aspiring English teacher and one who has spent most of their collegiate career dealing with words and the English language in general, I was not surprised in discovering my top learning styles dealt with linguistics. I was also not surprised that these results lacked much substance in logic and factual reasoning, which has never been a strong point of mine. As a musical person since a young age, I also knew I would score high in that section. The interpersonal and intrapersonal sections came out to be scored evenly, and as a teacher I think it is important that one reflects internally about what one is teaching, but also possess the ability to communicate this information to others, so I was happy to see those two sections also score fairly high.
