skknchat@gmail.com ABSTRACT Speaking is considered an important skill among the four language skills and self-confidence in learning speaking skills plays an essential part to learner’s success However, in reality, the level of self-confidence in speaking English of non-English major freshmen at Hanoi University of Industry is not high The study focuses on factors affecting non-English major freshmen’s selfconfidence in speaking English and methods to build up their self-confidence in learning speaking skills The subjects in the study are 150 non-English major freshmen randomly selected and twelve teachers teaching English for these faculties’ students Findings from the questionnaires and interview show that non-English major freshmen at Hanoi University of Industry are not self-confident in learning speaking skills due to students’ factors, teachers’ factors and objective factor Besides, three methods have been applied to increase freshmen’s self-confidence in speaking English namely designing pair or group work activities, letting students practice through many speaking activities and giving interesting topics of speaking Based on such findings, some suggestions are given with the hope that they might be useful for teachers as well as non-English major freshmen at Hanoi University of Industry in particular and other universities in general to develop nonEnglish major freshmen’s self-confidence in learning speaking skills iii TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION………………………………………………………………………

surely bring students self-confidence - Teachers should let students speak freely without fear of making mistakes Jones, L (2007) suggests that teachers should remind students that making mistakes is a natural part of learning a language Tang, L (1983) points out if students are making mistakes, they are learning and practicing and if they not make mistakes and correct them, they will never become perfect - Teachers should design many activities and games to students such as leadership opportunities, role-play, conversation, presentations, conversation games, reading out loud which make students become bold in speaking lessons Once students get the first few words out of their mouth and realize that they can be understood, they will start to speak much more in class 4.2.3 Recommendations for the administrators The administrators should consider and give proper adjustment of the number of students in a speaking lesson The number of students in a crowded class should be divided into two groups or even three groups who learn speaking at different times so that teachers can take care of all students and students can have more opportunities to practice speaking English in class 4.3 Summary To sum up, this chapter has presented the major findings to answer the research questions raised In addition, the researcher proposes some recommendations to the students, teachers and administrators to increase students’ self-confidence in learning speaking skills 37 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com PART III: CONCLUSION Conclusion In this study, the researcher has concentrated on investigating factors affecting non-English major freshmen’s self-confidence in speaking class and methods to build up their self-confidence in speaking English To complement this study, two instruments namely the questionnaires and the interview are used to find out the answers to the research questions of the study From their responses to the questionnaires and interview, it is clear that students’ factors, teachers’ factors and large classrooms affect non-English major freshmen’s self-confidence in speaking English For students, their low language level of proficiency, fear of mistakes and shyness make them not self-confident in speaking English For teachers, correcting mistakes while students talking; criticizing students’ mistakes and little encouragement to students have Maintaining crowded classrooms also has a direct impact on students’ self-confidence in speaking English In addition, three methods are applied to increase non-English major freshmen’s self-confidence in speaking English such as: designing pair or group work activities, letting students practice through many speaking activities and giving interesting topics of speaking At last, to boost non-English major freshmen’s self-confidence in speaking English the researcher studies students’ expectations for methods raising self-confidence and gives out some suggestions Limitations and suggestions for further studies Due to the limitation of knowledge, ability and time, the researcher cannot avoid the following shortcomings: First, the participants of the study are only non-English major freshmen and teachers teaching English for these students, not all students and teachers at university So, further studies should also investigate into the other sources of data Second, due to the limitation of time the researcher cannot recheck the effectiveness of proposed methods in this paper Therefore, to get a more reliable and complete result further studies may combine different tools for data collection like pre- 38 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com test, post-test and proficiency tests as research instruments which assist to assess students’ self-confidence in speaking English before and after the study Third, in this study, methods to build students’ self-confidence in speaking English such as: motivational feedbacks, interesting topics, appropriate ways of correcting mistakes, etc, are not focused It is clear that each method should be considered specifically in further studies Finally, the researcher carries the study to find out methods to increase students’ self-confidence in learning speaking skills Methods to help students learn other skills (listening, reading, writing) effectively should also be cared about in further studies REFERENCES 39 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Aftat, M (2008), “Motivation and Genuine learning” Retrieved from http:// www.english teacher1 Com/motivation.html at
