Abstract
The article looks upon criteria for teacher assessment surveys. The author emphasizes subjectivity of teacher ratings and highlights theoretical and pragmatic causes of academic interest to this theme. An opinion about the destructive effect caused by the predominance of personal characteristics on the list of questions for teacher assessment surveys is expressed. The author states that there is a need to reconsider the questions on the basis of purely professional criteria for language teachers’ skills. Criteria developed by Cambridge University (the DELTA course) are discussed and a comparative analysis of these criteria and the questions of the survey “Teacher Rating” of Financial University is conducted. New wordings and questions are suggested.
