Hi,
The differences between evaporation and boiling can be illustrated by the following points-
1. Evaporation occurs on the surface of the liquid whereas boiling occurs at the entire mass of the liquid.
2. Boiling occurs rapidly whereas evaporation is a slow process.
3. Evaporation occurs at any temperature whereas boiling occurs at a specific temperature.
4. The motion of particles is fast in boiling whereas in evaporation few particles move slowly and few at a faster rate.
5. There is formation of bubbles in boiling, but bubbles are not seen in case of evaporation.

The similarity is:

  •  both boiling ans evaporation cause change from one state to another. Boiling causes water to turn into vapours and evaporation also causes the same. 
  • both take place in liquids.

Both results in change of phase from liquid to gaseous phase.
Evaporartion is similar to boiling because they are both the changing of a liquid into a gas, wether it's rapidly or slowly.
They are both the state change from a liquid to a gas.

hope this helps
