I'd clarify and revise
For the first question, did you mean: "Which professional skills do teachers find the hardest to master (/tend to struggle with the most)?"?
I’d also try and reword the second question, something along the lines of: "What kinds of strategies have teachers—both novice and experienced—found most effective in reaching (/helping them achieve) professional competence?".

Hello.
I think that the wording can be improved.
For example, instead of "varying lengths of practice", I would use "varying experience" or, at least, "varying levels of experience".
https://www.google.com/search?q=teachers with varying levels...
Moreover, regarding Question 1, I would say: "What do teachers see as their weaknesses?"

1. Which competencies do teachers have a weak belief that they have achieved them?
In which areas of competence do teachers feel (that) they have fallen short?
2. What strategies do teachers with varying lengths of practice consider effective in achieving professional competencies?
What strategies do teachers with varying lengths of practice in the job consider effective in achieving professional competence?

"lengths of practice" sounds a little off and maybe better to say "time on the job"

more colloquial and ok

: I agree with your suggestion for question (1) but not with 'in the job' in question (2) - it's redundant.

2.1 One term is allowed per question.
Including multiple terms for translation in a single KudoZ posting interferes with the process of generating glossary entries.
2.2 Texts posted for translation via KudoZ should be limited to approximately ten (10) words.
For longer texts, it is recommended that the directory or job posting system be used to locate an appropriate professional. See a more detailed description here.

U S Eng. maybe *** About which skills (comp.) do teachers feel less confident that they have fully achieved (them)*** ? Maybe, Which skills do teachers lack full confidence in their achievement?
What do teachers with various levels of experience, feel about what constitutes effective strategies in achieving professional competencies?
Depends on audience , and location, U K or international Eng??
