A learner profile is a document, project, or even conversation that helps teachers learn more about their students.

Learner profiles may include information such as:

• Skills, strengths, and interests
• Aspirations and passions
• Likes and dislikes
• Life experiences
• How the student likes to learn
• Struggles or potential barriers to learning
• Anything else the student or teacher deems important

Teachers can use learner profiles to build effective relationships, develop an inclusive classroom, and understand what technology, differentiations, or adaptations may be needed for individual students.
