Nursing students have different personalities, therefore learning behaviors are significantly different. It is worth exploring whether teaching methods influence these differences and can be improved through specific education strategies. Methods: Experimental research methods and Questionnaire survey methods were used to test the effect of MBTI with different personality types on the implementation of targeted education strategies. Results: There was a significant correlation between MBTI and teaching effect (p < 0.005). Targeted changes in education strategies could effectively improve teaching effect (p < 0.005), improve teaching quality (p < 0.005), and improve nursing students’ professional identity (p < 0.005). Conclusion: The results showed that targeted changes in education strategies can effectively improve teaching effectiveness, teaching quality, and nursing students’ sense of occupational identity.
