In the midst of one of my lessons in class, I have brought up the fact that each of us has our strengths in some areas. For those of us who do not feel this way, it is because we have not found our strengths, talents and abilities yet. As I feel that this is something that will be good for you to know, I will like to extend this awareness to all of you in my classes.

According to psychologist Howard Gardner, there are not one but several intelligences in life. What is being assessed throughout your academic life is primarily inclined towards logical-mathematical and linguistic intelligences, which is merely two out of several intelligences. For more information, you can key in “Howard Gardner” and/or “Theory of Multiple Intelligences” into any search engines for more details.

I will like you to know that you are smarter than you think. And if you put in effort in achieving your life goals, I believe that all of you will do very well in life.
