Session Rating
Template

Goal Setting Tools

A blank four-question rating template for structured session check-ins and progress reviews.

Where This Tool Helps

Rating scales are most useful when the questions behind them are precise. A number on a scale means nothing without a clear question it’s answering. This template provides a blank structure: four questions that the coach sets in advance, each rated on a 1–5 scale.

Common uses include session-opening check-ins (rate your current confidence on these four dimensions), session-closing reviews (rate your clarity on four areas we worked on), or between-session tracking of specific variables the client is monitoring.

The format is intentionally minimal. The value comes from the questions you put into it, not from the template itself.

How to Use This Template

Before distributing to a client, fill in the four questions in the question fields. Questions should be specific, not general ("Rate your confidence in delivering the presentation Friday" rather than "Rate your confidence").
The 1–5 scale reads left-to-right from low to high. Consider labeling the endpoints (e.g., 1 = Not at all, 5 = Completely) for each question where the meaning of the scale might be ambiguous.
Clients circle or mark their chosen rating. One rating per question.
Review the four ratings together at the session opening or close. Patterns across ratings are often more informative than any individual score.
If used for tracking over multiple sessions, keep previous copies for comparison.
