Four key organizational and pedagogical conditions for self-diagnostic of a scientific-pedagogical worker in educational work are stated. The methodology of self-diagnostic of a scientific-pedagogical worker for educational work is substantiated. A questionary of an anonymous survey of students on self-diagnostic of the state of educational work by a scientific-pedagogical worker is presented. The main ways of improving the skill of a scientific-pedagogical worker in educational work are determined on the basis of the results of anonymous questioning of students.
