In the paper the last step is to test the new-formed evaluation system. Choosing 10 college English teachers from a university, Shandong province as assesses, using comprehensive evaluation method based on fuzzy mathematics, it is found that the reliability and validity of the system are relatively high and it can provide reference for Chinese college English teacher performance evaluation.
