Additionally, several variables can directly influence positive values ​​on English-speaking skills, such as self-efficacy and learning motivation, and negative values ​​on English-speaking skills, such as anxiety in speaking English. Apart from that, there is a direct positive influence on several variables that can influence English speaking skills through controlling learning motivation, including self-efficacy and anxiety in speaking English.
