If you want to customize RatingBar eg. Displaying other image than default Star refer How to create Custom Ratings bar in Android

This example shows Toast message when user selects Ratings. & Obviously you will have to customize it according to your needs (as you told you want to display it in TextView).

You can define a TextView in xml file & set its text property when Rating has changed.
