dc.description.abstract"Speaking is considered important because it is the skill one can use to communicate in an immediate way. However, it is one of the most difficult skills to develop in the language classroom. The purpose of this study is to explore those difficulties and strategies that English language learners at LEI have regarding their speaking ability. The research followed a mixed-method approach. The instrument designed was a questionnaire with closed (Likert scale) and openended questions, adapted from Hanifa (2018) and Humaera (2015). The sample population consisted of forty-five students from the Faculty of Languages at the undergraduate program of ELT. The data obtained was analyzed and classified in percentages and categories. The results show that affective factors such as fear, nervousness and shyness and language components such as vocabulary and grammar interfere when students speak in English. These aspects become a burden when communicating. However, results also show that students are resourceful when it comes to solving a speaking task because they use a variety of strategies such as affective, social, memory and compensation strategies to tackle communication issues".
