"One professional goal that I have is getting my master's degree in ESL. I have looked at a variety of programs and feel like Liberty University's certification would be best. With online curriculum and classes, I can teach as well as take school over a year."

A goal that I want to achieve over my career is getting each student to a place that they want to be at the end of each year. Some of the goals might be lofty, but we try our hardest to get them to a place of success.

Shane's Feedback
I love the hope in your answer. Even if you do not complete the main goal, maybe you can have small goals or mini-goals to see some sort of progress moving forward.
