Virtuosos enjoy exploring the world, even if that means humbling themselves or learning something new from an expert.
They might pick up hobbies where they work with their hands, and enjoy the process of learning something new. They know that there is much to learn and many people that they can learn from.Īll of this together builds a person who likes to work with what is in front of them, literally and figuratively. This is one of the reasons why an ISTP has a growth mindset and can pick up new hobbies without much prior knowledge of them. They logically see all of the possibilities in front of them, and know that there is always more to learn about a situation. Perceptionįinally, P is for perception or “prospecting” (as opposed to judgment.) “Judgers” tend to enjoy structure, and people with perception in their personality type are likely to keep their options open. They are more likely to use facts and figures to make a decision, rather than listen to what their emotions have to say. T is for thinking (as opposed to feeling.) People who lean toward thinking over feeling draw conclusions from the head rather than the heart. They look for obvious solutions and use straightforward, logical methods of thinking to help them get there, rather than relying on the sum of their experiences and feelings. S is for sensing (as opposed to intuition.) This trait is also called “observant.” Rather than relying on intuition, ISTPs use tangible observations to understand what is happening around them. Introverts are not necessarily shy, but they do gain more energy from reflecting on what’s going on inside than by surrounding themselves with other people and external stimulants. I is for introvert (as opposed to extrovert.) An introvert is more likely to be focused on their internal thoughts and feelings, rather than outside stimulation. We’ll start by breaking down the four traits that make an ISTP an ISTP: I, S, T, and P. Inspired by the work of Carl Jung, this mother-daughter duo defined four sets of traits that form various personality types.Īlthough the study of these personality types has evolved since the 20th century, the core ideas of this theory still holds strong. It is one of the 16 personality types outlined by personality researchers Isabel Briggs Myers and Katharine Briggs. ISTP stands for introvert, sensing, thinking, and perception. That’s the best thing you can do for any of your students.Assertive vs. And obviously the most important, just know who they are and be in tune with what they need. Provide them with learning that uses all of their senses, and find a balance with their resistance to structure and boundaries. Also at the same time, teach them ways to cope with learning in groups and speaking with peers on learning topics. Give them the independent study time they need, as much as you can feasibly do with the collaboration-driven schools that we are in now. So how can we help these students be more successful? First, be aware of their needs. Trade school came in first place with public or private schools receiving very few votes. A study was conducted asking ISTP types what type of school they preferred. While learning in a personal setting with hands-on manipulatives is becoming more and more common, it is still not ideal for this personality type to learn in typical schools. School systems are built around extroverted, intuitive personality types, which are students who engage with others, work in collaborating groups, and learn in a procedural way instead of learning using hands-on techniques. In fact, ISTP students are commonly known for having a difficult time excelling in school and are the least likely to continue education beyond high school. Worksheets and procedural learning are difficult for them to use to understand concepts. The sensing side of them thrives on using all of their senses to learn. They never want to discuss topics with peers, they want to answer questions as quickly and efficiently as possible. Often working in groups or even with a partner can feel stifling to them because they don’t want to be limited by other’s thinking. They need hands-on manipulatives to sit and work with while they quickly take in the information. The way they process information is in a personal way, using all of their senses.
Being introverted, they keep to themselves.
