About this template
Annual review conversations go better when the teacher arrives with evidence rather than adjectives. This self-review rates planning, instruction, assessment practice, classroom climate and professional collaboration on a 1-5 scale, with an example field behind each dimension so the rating is anchored. The AI PDF report ranks the dimensions, names the two with the most leverage and suggests concrete practice changes to take into the next term.
