So, what is an introvert?

An introvert is usually considered quiet or thoughtful. They hardly ever seek out attention and often prefer to be alone or around close friends. While introverts do fine at parties and social events, they tend to feel exhausted afterward. It is also important to note that being an introvert is not the same as being shy.

So, why should I care?

You will seek out activities that match your personality. If you have a teacher that encourages you to speak English in class all the time and you are an introvert, you are much more likely to perform poorly in class and develop a negative attitude towards English.

When you know your personality, you can study English in a way you find enjoyable.
