In light of this context, the purpose of this study was to look at the primary causes and sources of students' anxiety when learning to speak English in limited face-to-face learning due to pandemic Covid-19. A qualitative methodology and descriptive method were used to conduct the research. Six eighth-grade students from a public junior high school in Karawang took part in the study. Two low-level students, two middle-level students, and two high-level students were separated into three groups. Researchers used observation, interview, and documentation to gather data. The result showed that the primary causes of students' concern in learning English speaking, according to this research, were poor pronunciation and a lack of vocabulary.
