Language anxiety has become a prevalent problem for students of foreign languages as a second language, and extensive study is being conducted to investigate the association between language anxiety and speaking skills. Students in foreign language classes experienced fear and anxiety as a result of tasks involving speaking abilities. Numerous research investigations have been conducted in order to establish a link between language anxiety and speaking skills and to gain broad conceptions regarding foreign language speaking anxiety. The purpose of this study is to conceptualise speaking anxiety in the foreign language classroom. This study also looked at the prevalence of speaking anxiety among students, its relationship with gender, and the factors that contribute to speaking anxiety. It is found that foreign language anxiety is highly related to speaking skills, as foreign language students are apprehensive and fearful of communicating with others in foreign language sessions. This study also presents suggestions and recommendations for further research.
