Title: English Conversation Circles: A Peer-led Program to Build Confidence in Speaking

I. Introduction
One of the most common challenges students face in learning English is the lack of confidence in
speaking the language. Many students hesitate to participate in class discussions or oral activities
due to fear of making mistakes, low self-esteem, or limited vocabulary. To address this issue, the
English Conversation Circles program aims to create a relaxed and supportive environment where
students can practice speaking English regularly with their peers. Through structured but informal
group sessions, students will gain confidence, improve their communication skills, and develop a
more positive attitude toward using English.
