INSTRUCTIONS: Simply rate your proficiency in each skill area using the following scale:

0 = I know nothing about this skill
1 = I have seen this skill demonstrated, but have not tried to do it myself
2 = I can perform this skill, but I need some help
3 = I can perform this skill on my own
4 = I can teach this skill to others

Remember that your score is relative to yourself . . . one person's "35" does not equal another person's "35."

HINTS: Click on any skill statement for further explanation and for examples of that skill in action. When you are finished, you can e-mail a copy of your results to yourself.
