Abstract :
The study is aimed to find out the problems causing the students fail to learn English speaking in EFL classrooms at high school level in SMA Panjura Malang.

In addition to this, 1 EFL teacher was interviewed. Data gathered through these tools were analyzed using mixed approach data analysis method. The research findings indicated that a considerable number of students were reluctant and failed to respond to the teacher and remained silent in oral English language classrooms due to many causes as follows: (1)pyschological factors such as shy and afraid influenced them to hesitate to speak, (2)limited vocabularies complicated them to deliver their ideas, (3)a little comprehension to grammar make them difficult for them to speak English in correct way, (4)a little knowledge of topics given make them burdened to speak English, (5)the time given for practicing speaking holds them up to develop their ability to speak.
