This study aims to find out the correlation between self-confidence and students’English achievement and to answer the question of the hypothesis there is a correlation between self-confidence and students’ English achievement. The sample of this study were 30 tertiary students of English Language Education study program at Universitas Advent Indonesia. A questionnaire was used to gather the data, the questionnaire consisted of 20 questions and used the five-point Likert scale. The questionnaire was given to the students to measure their selfconfidence and then correlated the questionnaire result with the students’ English achievement grade. The Spearman’s Coefficient of (Rank) correlation was used in order to answer the question of the correlation between the self-confidence and the students’ English achievement and the data was calculated using SPSS. The result showed that there is no significant correlation between self-confidence and students’ English achievement. However, since thereis no enough evidence, the 􀀡\" cannot be rejected. For future researchers, it is recommended todo another study with enough data and evidence with different level of students and different aspect of English skills such as speaking.  \nKeyword: Self-confidence, English Achievement, tertiary students  \nIntroduction  \nPersons in all corners of the world are willing to learn English, since it has important roles. Its part in life is inseparable, for where ever a person goes, English will be found from advertisements to banners on the road. Many countries in the world use English as their communication tools. Robson (2013) said that,“English is spoken at a useful level by some 1.75 billion people worldwide – that’s one in every four. By 2020, we forecast that two billion people will be using it – or learning to use it. And it is the economically active, the thought leaders, the business decision-makers, the young, the movers and shakers present and future who are learning and speaking English. They are talking to each other more and more and English is the ‘operating system’ of that global conversation.” Furthermore, English has been implemented as an official subject in the classroom (Katemba & Sitompul, 2018). In Indonesia, English is viewed not only as an indispensable vehicle of access to scholarly disciplines but also as a medium for international communication. In the case of Indonesians, there is a high level of acceptability and tolerance of the use of English because English in Indonesia considered as a Foreign Language (Marpaung, 2017) . The teaching of English in the school curriculum is given a higher priority over all other foreign languages in the school systems. Thus, the teaching of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) is in fact compulsory (Katemba 2013) so students need to learn English.  \nLeaning is a process. According to Smith (2017) learning is “the acquisition of new knowledge or skills through teaching, experience or study. It is a transformative process in which the understanding of new information can lead to changes in a person’s behaviour or perception of the world around them.” In the process of behaviour change, a behaviour  \ntendency will be influenced by 2 factors, personal factor and social factors (Gifford & Nilsson, 2014). These factors will influence in some way the result to reinforced practice.  \nUtama et al,(in Rosymanto, 2018), stated that there are two aspects that have influenced the English skills, linguistics and non-linguistics aspects. The linguistics aspect include grammar, word order, pronunciation, comprehension of utterance, vocabulary, and fluency and the non-lingu","cbCaishUVFkD1dfl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaishUVFkD1dfl","pdf",166875,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Statement of the Problem\n# Hypothesis\n# Delimitation of the Study\n# Review of Related Literature","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study aims to determine whether there is a correlation between students’ self-confidence and their English achievement among tertiary students.\"},{\"question\":\"How were data on self-confidence collected?\",\"answer\":\"Self-confidence was measured using a questionnaire with 20 items based on a five-point Likert scale.\"},{\"question\":\"What statistical method was used to test the correlation?\",\"answer\":\"Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was used, and calculations were performed using SPSS.\"}]","The Correlation between Self-Confidence and Students’ English Achievement of Tertiary Students at Universitas Advent Indonesia | PDF",1792066279,25]
