Your personality type is:

Determined

You’re a driven and determined person who enjoys having a clear goal to work towards. You’re not afraid of a challenge and, when obstacles do arise along the journey to success, you face them head on.

Sometimes, this strong desire to achieve your goals can make you a little impatient, though when your logical and focused mindset is channelled correctly, there’s nothing stopping you achieving whatever you put your mind to.

Despite being a teacher there are many other options for you to explore that suit your talents, your motivations and, of course, your personality.

As someone who thrives off healthy competition, Osome found that you would be well suited to a job that is both target driven and allows you to be self-sufficient.

Your personality type is:

Creative

Always brimming with ideas, you love collaborating and creating with others. Not only is your enthusiasm infectious to those around you but, with such notable social and people skills, you have an ability to influence others in a way many can only dream of.

You’re sometimes impulsive and keen to please, but this is always driven by your honest desire to quickly establish strong friendships and connections. You welcome change, but you may need a little push to take the practical and necessary steps to turn your dreams into a reality.

Despite being a teacher there are many other options for you to explore that suit your talents, your motivations and, of course, your personality.

Your personality type is:

Organised

You’re a stickler for precision and accuracy, which is the very reason why you complete tasks to an exceptional standard and always on time. As an organised individual, you’re able to juggle many duties at once which, over the years, has enabled you to pick up a varied set of skills and gain knowledge in a range of subjects.

Given your attention to detail, you have a tendency to overanalyse, which can sometimes stifle creative juices. However, is also this attention to detail that propels your desire to challenge the norm and question the status quo.
