Skills And Interests Analysis

Improved Essays
For this essay I will be talking about my: skills, interests (inside & outside of school), multiple intelligences, the way I like being taught, whether I 'm a creator doer or fixer, and also values I have like patience or independence, and also what my future career will be. I will be doing a report because I dislike writing essays.

Interests
I am a hands on type of person and I find it easier to learn when I am taught with actually doing stuff instead of being told, I don’t like having to deal with a bunch of information being thrown at me at once because I find it hard to process and I usually get lost in all the information.

Skills
Many of the things listed i posses, including: numerical, communication, Sense awareness, problem solving,

I am very aware of my surroundings and so if someone was to steal from the store I worked in, or take something from me I would notice that it was gone and I would confront the person.
I’m a great problem solver, not only when there is a heated situation between people but also when there is technical difficulties. If I saw there was a heated situation I would attempt to defuse it, by pointing out one good fact about each person argument and then they both feel equal. And for technical situations if I don 't recognize the problem straight away I try to do some research online which 99% of the time helps.
Now when we talk about self-management I am not as good as could be, I get very easily distracted by not only sounds but also by things happening around me. And once I’m off track I find it hard to get back on.
Organizing is something I find very helpful when working because I don’t like having to look for everything, and if I have to go looking I usually get distracted by something I see or hear. So I try to keep everything organized from my computer to my school

Unlike many others I really enjoy puzzles, mazes etc, because like I’ve already said they challenge my thinking and teach me new things that I might not have known. I find reading charts and maps easy, I’m not sure why I think it’s just a natural skill, the chart I find the easiest to read is a pie or table chart, because of their simplicity. And I like to watch movies, or rather documentaries about Gangs and Violence, and also a little bit of human behaviour. I like to watch these types of documentaries because before I moved to Canada I just to live in a poor neighbourhood with my brother, and mom. And so I can kind of relate, but also it teaches me how to tell if I can trust people through their past. A quote that relates to this that I live by is “The best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour” which is said by Doctor Phil, not that I watch him.

Learning Styles
For learning styles I put that I am a Tactile learner, and here are my ratings of the Tactile Statements: I use posters and models in the classroom(3), I enjoy working with my hands(5), IO like to play with coins, pens, keys and other objects when learning(2), I chew gum or snack when I study(1), I learn how something works by taking it apart and putting it back together(5), I grip objects in my hands while learning(5), I enjoy classes with

    Some qualities I feel I possess as a person and a hygienist is that I am determined, responsible, self-motivated, organized, and flexible. Determination is something I knew I wanted to achieve when I started college it is something everyone needs to possess to be successful in life to better their future. For example, from the moment I started in the dental hygiene program I was determined to pass my courses and to graduate. I had to be determined in my courses if I wanted to be able to take my state board and hopefully become a licensed dental hygienist. Without determination, I know I would not be where I am today in my life and my career path.…

    My personal learning style is kinesthetic. I like to have a feel for the particular assignment. For example, when I was in elementary school, I remember one of my teacher was explaining math and for some reason I was not getting it. My teacher pulled me aside and told me, “How about you use some blocks to explain the problem?” When I was a little girl, I used to build large towers in my room.…

    Career Interest and Assessment The result from the career cluster survey says that I am social and enterprising. I disagree with me being social because I don’t like teaching people. I agree with me being enterprising because I like to figure out problems mentally rather than to persuade or lead people. My career cruising results are Visual and Auditory learning, I agree with both of these results because I have trouble with math so if the teacher is using pictures to explain a certain problem and really breaking it down so that I can understand it that really helps me when it comes down to taking a test or a quiz to remember how they explained it.…

    Not all learning styles can fit into a specific situation, there are times when a kinesthetic style is better than an aural. By becoming proficient in all learning styles, I would become flexible in all learning situations. The student should be able to shift towards the professors teaching styles in addition to exceling in their learning environment. Now, I work the best with the aural, kinesthetic, and read/write learning styles, with the weakest like being the visual learning style. By taking the content learned to the next level by shifting it across learning styles, I would gain a greater understanding towards it.…

    Active learners retain information by doing hands on activities and reflective learners retain information by thinking about the subject first. Sensory learners like learning facts and intuitive learners prefer discovering possibilities and relationships. Visual learners retain information best from visual aids and verbal learners retain information by hearing it. Sequential learners understand information best when it is given in steps linear steps, whereas, global learners learn information as a whole and then fill in the details. Even though I show a slight preference for one learning style over another, I find that I utilize all of the learning styles for different…

    Organization is important for me because without it my life would be chaos. The more I learn about other people and their lives the more I realize that I am not the only one with a lot on my plate. That being said, I still do need a planner, my phone, and sticky notes to keep me focused on what I need to get done on a certain day at a certain time. Twenty-four hours in a day are sometimes not enough to juggle all the things I have to accomplish, even while being relatively organized. I need to make time for my lectures and quiz sections from Monday to Friday while also finding time to study for quizzes and midterms.…
