Observations on speaking worries and self-reported confidence

One study found vocabulary retrieval was the top speaking worry in two learner groups. A separate 2025 medical English workshop study found 73.5% self-reported progress and 76.6% self-reported greater confidence about a future patient interview. These findings make specific, purpose-led speaking situations a relevant area to practice.

Studies point out what makes speaking a new language feel hard, as well as the benefits people see from regular practice. Here is what recent research suggests.
