Abstract: Abstract The difficulty in speaking English is not only linguistic factors but also psychological ones such as “fear of being wrong”, “insecure”, “nervous”, and “fear of being laughed at”, which stems from low self-confidence. This research aims to develop a self-confidence training model aiming to stimulate speaking skills. The approach is experiential learning, namely learning from students’ real experiences regarding low self-confidence. The method used in the research is Research and Development (R &D) so the expected output is in the form of a training model in the form of a presentation for in-house training. Learners’ responses after participating in the training show that understanding self-confidence makes them dare to speak in English without worrying about mistakes (32.3% very agree, 64.2 agree, 3.7% less agree, and 0% no agree). In conclusion, learning English, besides improving the teaching method, it is necessary to remove psychological hindrances such as a lack of self-confidence, to stimulate speaking skills.
