Intense, loner, wallflower, focused… these are just a few ways introverts are frequently described. Whether its in the classroom, at home, or on the playground, these reserved individuals often get lost in the shuffle. Although we predominantly live in an extrovert world, it is important to remember that introverted gifted students have so much to offer.

    I think it was a great insight into what it is like for the introverts. We really need to provide more opportunities for introverted gifted learners to shine.

  6. Lynn – SPRING ISD (verified owner)

    I love this course! I am an introvert and a lot of my co-workers do not understand why I am not an extrovert. This helped me to not only understand myself and my teaching style, but also how to help my students who are introverts, and how to encourage extroverts and introverts to successfully work together (or in solitude). Thanks!
