Abstract:
This study utilizes a quantitative approach to explore the specific difficulties middle school teachers face in testing reading comprehension and assess their perceptions of assessment effectiveness. The study involves 30 EFL middle school teachers and employs survey/questionnaire for data collection. Our analysis revealed that while a majority of teachers feel confident in their ability to design effective assessments, a significant portion still faces challenges. Additionally, The challenge of addressing diverse reading levels among middle school students It emphasizes that students in this age group demonstrate a broad spectrum of reading abilities, making it difficult to create assessments that are equally challenging for everyone. This process can be time-consuming and complex for teachers, as they must balance varying skill levels while ensuring that assessments are fair, effective, and support all students' learning progress.. The interest in alternative assessment methods indicates willingness among teachers to explore and implement new strategies that could provide a more comprehensive evaluation of student comprehension.
