Personality Test Results

My personality test results through the Kisa Personality Inventory was ENFJ:

Extraverted (E) 68%     Intraverted (I) 32%

Intuitive (N) 73%       Sensing (S) 27%

Feeling (F) 90%          Thinking (T) 10%

Judging (J) 73%          Perceiving (P) 27%

I also took the MMDI Personality type test at: http://www.teamtechnology.co.uk/mmdi/online/ 

Results were =  ESFJ 75% + ENFJ 79%

Both reports appear to go with with the and what I believe about my personality traits.  I feel the numbers are correctly portrayed as Extroverted 68% and Introverted 32%, while I do enjoy being a part of the group, I also can be introverted at times. Growing up in a family of 5 girls had a strong hand in that outcome I believe.  I see myself as intuitive of students needs, so the numbers of Intuitive (N) 73% and Sensing (S) 27% stand to reason. When looking at the next percentages I was not surprised at Feeling (F) 90% and Thinking (T) 10%, I have been told I have tendency to care too much (though I will argue every time how much is too much). :-)
Judging (J) 73%  and Perceiving (P) 27% I was unsure about till I read the following.

motivated  

The following is an excerpt from Judging or Perceiving Myers & Briggs Foundation: 

I prefer a planned or organized way of life, like to have things settled and organized, feel more comfortable when decisions are made, and like to bring life under control as much as possible.

“Do not confuse Judging with judgmental, in its negative sense about people and events. They are not related.” (I found this reassuring)

The following statements generally apply to me:

o I like to have things decided.

o I appear to be task oriented.

o I like to make lists of things to do.

o I like to get my work done before playing.

o I plan work to avoid rushing just before a deadline.

o Sometimes I focus so much on the goal that I miss new information.

How did your personality affect your choice of content area?
I believe and hope my warm friendly personality is showing through the content of these pages.

How does or will your personality affect your relationships with your students?  
My personality traits show how caring and compassionate I can be and as a teacher of younger students I feel it is critical they are welcomed into their first years of school with open minds and hearts.
As a teacher I hope to making a lasting difference that motivates and inspires students to continue their learning. My belief is that children are our future and every child has the potential to convey something special and unique. I hope to help children to develop their potential by believing in them as capable individuals. I think, believing in them and promoting their self-confidence will assist them in education.
