Abstract

There have been a lot of purposeful debates within the English language learning profession on issues related to the students’ learning of English, especially the speaking component in non-native countries like Iran. Non-English speakers have no choice but to learn English in order to survive in an international relationship, global business and in an education environment, particularly in Iran. How Iranian students learn the spoken English proficiency, is more complicated than in the case of other skills. The bulk of investigations on Iranian students’ English speaking weaknesses were reviewed to find the main points of view about the major problems. The most significant finding was unacceptable method, Grammar translation method (GTM) used to teach English language in Iran. This paper will have a short look at to the other researchers’ opinions, the judgments and insights achieved in some of papers that researches have explored such as textbooks, limited- time, using Persian language in the English classroom and curriculum matters which could be the main descriptive issues in this paper.
