Abstract
The purpose of this research was to determine how an English teacher design and
evaluate the semester test. This research was done in SMP N 1 Sintuk Toboh Gadang.
One of the ways through which feedback can be obtained from the learners on what
the teachers had taught them is an evaluation. Students’ achievement in a particular
course of study can be determined through evaluation. This work observed various
aspects of ordinary level English in which students’ achievement are often assessed
with a view to assisting students in overcoming problems often encountered during
such tests and evaluations. Based on the results of observation and interviews with
English teachers at the school, explained that for designing the semester test English
language teachers should be used to assess the degree to which students have learned
what they should have learned and provided a vehicle for providing students feedback
about how well they have learned the material. To solve the problem English teacher
design and evaluate the semester test by using the grating to help students.
