Gardner's Multiple Intelligences

In the classroom my strength in linguistics is going to help with students who need help with English and language skills. I will also be able to understand their moods and temperament due to my high level of interpersonal skill. I have a minor in psychology and it has helped me learn to read people. This will especially help me if I have a student who is struggling, but remains quiet. I will be able to pick up on the cues and what motivates them.

My biggest strength is in linguistics and that did not surprise me. I am a former journalism major and love English and reading. I have a great taste for all books, but love the works of Jane Austen, Kate Chopin, and Margaret Mitchell.

I was the former editor of my college paper and my second strength is interpersonal. I feel this helped me when interviewing people for the paper and for when it comes to reading the moods of people around me.
