Details	This research explored the possibility of implementing a holistic evaluation instead of an analytic evaluation for the English speech contest. Ten speakers were evaluated by their scores based on the sub-rank method. The participants of the two different evaluation systems were 52 incumbent English teachers grouped into three kinds of English abilities: the second level of 17 Japanese English teachers, the pre-first level of 20 Japanese English teachers for STEP, and 15 native English speakers. This research clarified three results: there were no significant differences between the holistic evaluation and the analytic evaluation relating to the score of ten speakers. However, it revealed a significant difference concerning the score of two speakers between the 2nd level teachers for STEP and the ALTs; the holistic evaluation significantly reduced the evaluating time compared to the analytic evaluation.
