The checklist in this section will help you to see improvement in a number of areas. Indicate in the first column what you felt your skill level was when you began teaching, and then in the second column estimate where you feel your skills, comfort, or understanding are now. Some areas will see improvement, some will stay the same, and some might even go down. Don't feel disheartened about whatever the chart reveals. The way to move forward is to start with where you are right now. Good teaching is a process and you are just starting the journey. The purpose of this chart is to give you a benchmark from which to improve. Go to the Checklist now.
