There are many reason why
Thai students cannot speak English.
-English isn't our mother tongue language,
so we are shy to use it in our daily life.
-Some Thai usually judge people whose speak
English is different from them.

In this topic is the same as the problem in my action research.
The first thing is Thai student is not a native learner so they are not familiar to English.
The second is mother tongue is effecting to the learners who are not native speaker. For example, Thai learners cannot pronounce -th in the right way. This show that in Thai language do not have -th sound so Thai learner cannot speak or pronounce them.
And the last one is foreign language is difficult for them. Their attitude is very important toward their learning. And this is the duty of teacher to get through their bad attitude.

In the present time, the method to learn L2 is different the past.
the students don't have the inspiration to learn English
the first skill is the listening. We would start in the listening.

1. Thai students always think that, English is same as their language.
2. Thai students are strict in grammar more than in communication or conversation.

In Thai society, they look people who speak English are stranger.
So that makes these people shy to speak English in daily life.
Also the English teachers in the past did not graduate from English major
specially at the schools in the rural area.
From my experience when i was in a primary school, i had studied with a real English teacher
only when i was in Pratom 6. Well, i had remembered when i was in Pratom 3,
in every English classes, the teacher gave me a same task that was writing 5 vocabularies in one page
such as, bad, rad, cat , hat and so on. what for???? Because she cannot teach
English and she was not a English teacher. In addition, she only used Thai language.
However she thought me one lesson 'the patience' to write and write.

- Having no concern why it's important
- Having less chances to communicate
- Poor quality teacher
- focusing on to use with exam not the real situation

The main reason is we don't use English language in daily-life.
So we have less chances to communicate.

Lack of confidence and English is not Thai official language that make
Thai students are not familiar with English since they were born.
Although at present many Thai students pay much attention in English,
they still lack of the environment where to practice speaking English.
Thus, I think school should provide opportunity to speak English
for example, one day of a week, everyone in school must speak English
for communicate with others.
It is a chance to prepare students to job opportunity in future.

There are many causes about this big problem.
An English teacher speak or teach English subject in Thai.
So, it's impossible that Thai students can speak English.
The second reason is Thai students don't use language in daily life.
They learned but they didn't use or speak it out, so it easy to know that it's impossible.
Our education system is the third reason; Thai system makes student focus on grammar and
don't focus on communicative. Even though, it's the big problem for long time,
but we can't solve it until now.
So sad!! T^T However, we should teach them in English and try to give chances to them to speak English in English class.

Thais use Thai language as the official language.
Thus it hardly to speak or use English to communicate.
They just learn in the class and never practice in real situation.
Another reason is Thai people are shy.
Some of them are worry about accent and grammar.
Thus they should have good attitude with English.

No confident and worry about grammar are the two majors for them.
They have no confident when they speak English.
They also worry too much about their grammar when they speak.

Thai teachers who teach English don't use English in classroom.
That makes Thai students are not familiar with second language and shy to speak.
Also they were taught to study for examination.

Actually, we were taught in the wrong way.
We start learning from grammartical error before speaking and listening so that when we want to speak, we have to think about it. So we are unable to speak English fluently.

I think Thai students are too shy to speak English.
So that is one of the reasons for Thai people afraid to speak English.
Their parents should practice them speaking English since they were young.
This may help a lot to make Thai students are able to speak English.

It's because they don't have a chance to speak English outside classroom.
Additionally, I have gotten something from thai teaching style when I was a
student, and I found that a few teachers who taught me in English. Normally,
what they taught was all about Grammar; it was sort of boring.
