dc.description.abstractForeign language learners face challenges in speaking English fluently in classroom discussions or role-plays due to the complexity of the speaking skill and the effect of the psychological factors. This study aimed to identify the main psychological factors that influence third-year English language students’ oral performance in speaking English. The study hypothesized that learners’ poor speaking performance is due to some psychological factors, namely anxiety, shyness, self-esteem and lack of motivation. A questionnaire and interview were used to collect data from 80 third-year EFL students and an oral expression teacher, respectively. The results showed that most students exhibited high anxiety and shyness, and low motivation and self-esteem. The study suggested strategies to create a better environment, motivate learners, raise self-esteem, and encourage language practice both inside and outside the classroom for better results in the future.
