| الوصف: | The study focused on the vision of secondary school English teachers regarding the evaluation process of this language in Costa Rica. A qualitative approach was developed by applying a questionnaire to 72 English teachers from public educational institutions in Costa Rica using Google Forms and an in-depth interview to four teachers from different secondary education institutions in person and virtually through video calls. It was found that, in general, teachers have a negative view of the evaluation of English teaching with percentages between 60% and 100%. There is evidence of concern on the part of teachers about relevant aspects that affect the quality of teaching and its evaluation, such as the lack of continuity in English learning between primary and secondary school, the evaluation methodology, the number of students per group, and the lack of motivation of students to learn English. It is concluded that it is necessary to reflect on the need to implement significant changes, both in the way English is taught and in the way students’ knowledge and skills are evaluated. |
