English proficiency plays a crucial role in enhancing students' academic performance, cultural
awareness, and career opportunities. However, many Indonesian students still face difficulties in mastering
English due to traditional teaching methods that offer limited exposure to real-world communication. This
study aims to design and develop an English qualification try-out website to support students' learning using
the Feature-Driven Development (FDD) method. The system's usability and user experience were evaluated
through the System Usability Scale (SUS) and the Short User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ-S). The SUS
evaluation produced a score of 72.46, classified as Good and above the industry average, indicating
practical usability. The UEQ-S results showed a Pragmatic Quality score of 1.810, a Hedonic Quality score
of 0.988, and an overall average of 1.399, indicating a positive user experience. These findings demonstrate
that the proposed system effectively supports English learning activities while maintaining a user-friendly
interface. Future development should focus on enhancing interactivity and engagement to further improve
the overall learning experience.
