Thesis:
Most of Indonesian students cannot speak English well. In fact, they actually understand and know the words in English but they are not able to speak. Even for reading, they still have mispronunciation.

Arguments:
I realize that our tongue cannot instantly speak in English. It should be trained in order to speak well. The students often have a low confidence in speaking. They feel afraid of making mispronunciation. But, for me it is ok, otherwise they will always be afraid and the teacher should give an example before the students speak, and the teacher has to encourage his/her students to speak. Practice makes perfect, it does help!

Recommendation:
I feel that our high school teachers should improve their method in teaching. They have to encourage students to speak and not to blame directly to the students who make mispronunciation. Before the students are ordered to speak, the teacher must give a good example. For the beginners, it is important for them to know and to be able to pronounce well because it will be easier for them rather than for the ones who learn English for a long time but still have mispronunciation.
