| Summary: | The results of the studies show that the accuracy of the teaching strategies used influences students' ability to understand English literacy. The need to master English literacy skills can not only be done formally but can also be done through informal learning. With increasing demand to support students taking literacy tests, many informal education institutions organize practice tests internally. However, compiling test instruments must be done in a complex manner, which creates a challenge. So, this process requires measurements to assess the quality of the items on the test instrument. This research aims to test students' level of proficiency in English literacy using the RASCH model. The subjects of this research were 30 students from an informal education institution in Bantul. The Quest program is used to analyze data in this research. The result showed that the instrument tests provided poor quality even if they fit the RASCH model, so they must be reviewed again. This research provided new insight into the importance of question analysis in validating test instruments to improve the quality of instrument tests at Informal education institutions in the future
