12. Temperaments: How To Understand Ourselves & Our Children

The Parent-Teacher Project

Alexandre Havard has written multiple books and speaks internationally about encouraging greatness. Founder of the Virtuous Leadership Institute, Alexandre recently made this presentation to more than 600 parents from the schools of The PARED Foundation about understanding your child’s temperament.

This episode highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the four temperaments, helping you to identify which applies to you and your children. Understanding these temperaments reveals a lot about how your child behaves, interacts with classmates, and even subjects they may excel in. Getting to know the areas your child may naturally feel challenged in will help you and your child’s school guide them to being the greatest they can be.
