Abstract
The last fifteen years, many scholars have investigated the problem faced by students with anxiety and performance in speaking English as a foreign language (Uztosun, 2020; Al−Saraj, 2013; Thompson, 2018). Chou (2018) indicated that speaking skills are rarely practiced in elementary and secondary English instead of focusing on literacy development. Nevertheless, students have a lack of confidence and unwillingness to speak English. They feel anxious when using English to express opinions verbally hold discussions or interact with teachers or classmates. Huang (2010) also reported that the majority of these students are not comfortable speaking English and are therefore not fluent. In addition, to reduce the anxiety of speaking performance, students need to comprehend the aspect of English proficiency. Chen Su (2021) expressed that the anxiety of students in speaking English can be overcome by raising their confidence. Furthermore, according to Tarnopolsky (2018), anxiety about speaking performance can be overwhelmed by strategies or activities in pairs and group discussions. In addition, Darmawati (2021) elucidated that if students don't manage their anxiety well, it will have a bad impact on them. Students will not master English, if they cannot master speaking skills at least they must have a strategy to reduce anxiety about speaking in class or when they talk to their friends or their teacher. In sum, the anxiety about speaking performance faced by students can be reduced through the activity of group discussion such as sharing with the teacher or friends
