The object of the research was English textbook grade XI published by Kemendikbud (first and second semester). There are five chapters for the first semester and six chapters for the second semester. The total chapter was eleven. The instrument was evaluation checklist adapted from Four Strand’s theory by Nation and Macalister (2010). The result showed that the proportion of language skills represented by English textbook Grade XI published by Kemendikbud 2014 was not balanced for all components of language skills.
