  • We know what teachers expect from students 
  • We know what students expect from teachers
 
What kind of student are you?

S: Tend to live through their senses ( the way the things are)

N: Tend to live through their intuitions ( possibilities )

Neither of these types is better than the other one.

Example

Finally, Let´s focus on two importan things: 
  1. The difference between a “practical suggestion” and “just teorical idea” might lie in you. 
  2. A useful technique for you might not be so useful for somebody else, and vice-versa.
