Summary/Abstract: The problem of evaluation of the translation engrosses the minds of many researchers, however, the general criteria for the evaluation of the translation, in our case, the translation of specialized discourse, is not developed until now. Many researchers attempt to develop the criteria for evaluation, which will help to assess the translations and, consequently, the activity of a translator. The analysis of studies where this issue is discussed has allowed the author to identify three different approaches: evaluation of translation by translatologists, evaluation of translation that was made at enterprise and evaluation criteria while teaching translation. In this study, the author is interested in the evaluation of translation while teaching. However, this assessment is based on the translatologists’ and translation employer’s requirements.
