Abstract


Teaching and assessment are interrelated each other. They are important elements of learning cycle. As teachers, we must evaluate on a routine basis so that we can make decisions about what to teach the next day. English skill is classified into receptive and productive skills. Receptive skills that include listening and writing. They are crucial to be tested as language competence is developed firstly from receptive skills. When people understand what other people say or write, interaction may go on. If an interlocutor does not know the utterances, communication will not occur. This article explores the nature of receptive skills and provides the models of testing both listening and reading skills and its implementation. By understanding the concept of assessing receptive skill, hopefully teachers are able to run the assessment more effectively that later can contribute to the better learning
