The Impacts of Self-Efficacy on EFL Learners’ Speaking Skills
Journal Title: JELITA: Journal of Education, Language Innovation, and Applied Linguistics - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
In L2 speaking learning contexts, highly self-efficacious EFL learners are characterized as speakers capable of sharing their ideas confidently with other interlocutors as they have put a higher degree of belief towards their current speaking competencies. In support of self-efficacy, EFL learners are strongly willing to proceed with the complex speaking learning processes as they are prompted to foster their L2 communicative competencies to the utmost level. This small-scale library study was initiated to reveal the potential impacts of self-efficacy on EFL learners’ speaking skills. To achieve the primary study objective, 30 previous self-efficacy studies were profoundly reviewed with a thematic analysis to yield more understandable and trustworthy research results. Based on the obtained research results, it is strongly suggested that second language-speaking learning instructors infuse the robust construction of self-efficacy within EFL learners since they can progressively transform into more successful and confident L2 speakers. In conclusion, a higher degree of self-efficacy growth allows EFL learners to persistently confront various speaking learning impediments due to the successful employment of their speaking learning strategies mutually interlinked with the current speaking learning situations.
