In this episode we interview one of our own teaching mentors, Dr. Jan Wiersema of Iowa State University.

We explore how using type indicators (sometimes called personality assessments) like Myers Briggs can help faculty understand their students on a deeper level, allowing them to tailor a mentoring approach to better connect with the student.

Dr. Jan has a background in K-12 and college education and we get into some great conversation on grit as well.
