Self-confidence is needed by students to support their success in communicating. Students with high self-confidence will grow confident in themselves, and vice versa. Feelings of fear and inferiority are caused by a lack of self-confidence. One of the Indonesian language subjects at MI is orally retelling fables. This study found a lack of self-confidence in students, so the learning process is not optimal. Therefore, self-confidence is very necessary. This article seeks to reveal the ability to retell fable stories of MIN 6 Ponorogo students based on high, medium, and low self-confidence. To examine this problem, we used a qualitative descriptive method with observation, questionnaires, tests, and documentation in order to obtain sufficient data. Data findings were analyzed through data condensation, data presentation, and inference. The findings show that students with high confidence are successful in retelling fable stories, both in language, content, and non-language. Students with moderate self-confidence have a tendency to be anxious, so the ability to retell fable stories is not achieved as expected. Students with low self-confidence tend to give up easily when retelling fable stories, so that linguistic, content, and non-language factors are not achieved.
