ABSTRACT:
"Speaking" is considered the most challenging skill among the four skills. Even though students have studied English for 7-10 years in high school, they can mostly only "read" and cannot "speak" this language. Therefore, research was conducted on 100 non-major students of a university to find out what strategies students use to learn speaking skills. From the fact that the solutions will be proposed to help non-majors have genuinely appropriate and effective learning methods to improve their English speaking skills further.
