If students are not able to speak English fluently and clearly, this purpose will be hard to achieve. So, it is essential to study this phenomenon in order to discover if students actually have problems with speaking, and then we can recognize what kind of problems and the reason of it also their perception in Speaking English as a foreign language in Indonesia. This study employed qualitative research paradigm as an intensive, holistic description, and analysis of a single instance, phenomenon, or social unit (Alwasilah, 2011) . The study employed a descriptive method with multi instruments as observation, questionnaires, and interviews. Populations of this research were taken from a class of last semester students at STKIP Siliwangi Bandung and the sample were taken from four high achievers and four low achievers from the classroom. The result showed that students’ behavior lead them to speaking difficulties, those who are not interested in speaking activity, relatively get trouble in speaking for academic purposes. This study showed that students who experience difficulties with speaking often have problems with their motivation and self-confidence so that they feel quite hard to recognize their true skill. Somehow, many students have positive attitude and perception toward the concept of fluency in speaking English. They consider that fluency in speaking is something important to master; they think it will be very useful for their carrier in the future.  \nKeywords : Speaking English, Difficulties  \nIntroduction  \nStudents at English major must master English in both written and oral communication, because the aim of English language education is to provide students with the capabilities to understand the language and the ability to both write and speak it (Richard, 2008) . If students are not able to speak English fluently and clearly, this aim is hard to achieve. So, it is important to study this issue in order to discover if students actually have problems with speaking English, and if they do then we can recognize the kinds of problems and the reason that make it happened. Somehow, since there are some students who have problems with speaking, they must be able to demonstrate their speaking skill in  \nfront of many people in the future. For example, the prerequisite of finishing their study is they have to write a mini thesis and after that they still have to defense their argumentation orally in oral examination. That’s why speaking as oral communication plays an important role in students’ academic life and their daily life.  \nThe phenomena that the researchers see nowadays, some students understand the English language very well but then feel difficult and uncomfortable when they have to speak English. They are in doubt to express their sentences in English. However, they have to Speak English in appropriate way and understandable. Moreover, they are students of English major who will be English teachers in the future.  \nRichards and Renandya(2002) stated that one implication of teaching and learning activity is focusing on both the forms of language and the functions of learning a language itself. In teaching oral communication, it’s better if we don’t limit students’ attention and opportunity to be immersed in the language.  \nReferring to those explanations above, the study were conducted to seek the students’ difficulties in speaking English and to know their attitude and perception toward speaking English as a foreign language in Indonesia.  \nTherefore, the research questions are:  \n1.
