Understanding intelligence types helps you tailor instruction and offer choices that meet diverse learning styles.

3. Builds Confidence
Students realize they're smart in their own way, boosting self-esteem and motivation.

Grouping students with different strengths fosters peer learning and teamwork.

When students use their strengths, they’re more likely to stay on-task and feel successful.
