Personality, Intelligences, Learning Styles

When we think of ourselves and what people see, A LOT of it is summed up by our personality. 

 Hopefully, this page will be both fun as well as informative. 

As you scroll down, there are 4 different categories that include inventories (surveys) telling you what type of personality you have.  We will primarily focus on Lowry's "true colors" and Garnder's "Multiple Intelligences" (which technically isn't a personality type)

ENJOY!!!!!!!
