Did you succeed in achieving your action steps since the last meeting? If yes, please state which action steps you were able to complete. If no, please explain the challenges that you experienced. (If first meeting, write ‘first meeting’ here.): 
Yes, I discussed becoming a full-time teacher. Since then, I interviewed for a position as a second-grade teacher. I proudly accepted the position. My GPA is still at 3.92 as I continue to work diligently. Demonstration teaching is coming to an end and the experience is extremely rewarding.
Please state your goal using the SMART Method: Specific: Avoid generalities! Your goal should have specific details so you know what you are achieving. Measurable: Make sure you have solid criteria for establishing your progress toward your goal. Actionable: You can clearly define action steps towards your goal Rewarding: Your goal must be something that is meaningful and worthwhile. Time Specific: Having specific dates for beginning and finishing goals keeps you on track. Example: “My goal is to receive a Sports Internship by May 1st”: 
My specific goal is to graduate from college with my master's degree. One measurable step is to become a teacher which I've accomplished. My actions are to maintain a high GPA and graduate with honors. The reward will be beneficial to me now that I have an educational career. In time I'll complete the state required Gace testing so that I can accomplish my goal before July 2024.
Please list the action steps you will take to achieve your goals stated above. These are action steps that will be completed by next meeting. Example: “1. Finish my resume. 2. Talk with my advisor. 3. Submit a sports internship application at two institutions.”: 
I've accepted a position as a full time second grade teacher. My supervisor wrote a letter of recommendation for this position. I have 2 weeks and 2 days before student teaching is completely over.
How have the NSLS speakers or SNT meetings helped you achieve your goals or changed your life?: 
The NSL speakers have taught me to continue striving for success! I've learned to create a circle of positive and motivate team members. Never quit and finish what I start. A leader is a positive role model for others and they're a true example of professionalism.
