Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
The  study  examines  the  relationship  between  Libyan  pre-service  English  language teachers’  speaking  anxiety  and  their  language  learning  autonomy.   Also,  the  students’  levels  of  speaking  anxiety  and  the  factors  that  shape  this  anxiety  were  computed.  In  addition,  the  students’  readiness  for  learning  autonomy  was  investigated.  Furthermore, the  correlation between the participants’ speaking anxiety and their oral performance was calculated.    In  achieving  the  research  objectives,  a  mix-method  research  approach  was employed.  The   quantitative  approach  was  utilized  using  two  students’  self-reporting scales  (speaking   anxiety  questionnaire  and  language  learning  autonomy  questionnaire) whereas the qualitative  approach was employed by conducting semi-structured interviews with   selected   students.   The    respondents   were   300   English   department   pre-service teachers  who  are students  at   three universities  in  Libya.  It  was  found  that  the  students experience  moderate  to  high   level  of  speaking  anxiety.  Also,  the  main  factor  for  their speaking  anxiety  is   their   low   self-confidence.   Besides   that,   a  significant   negative relationship  between   students’  speaking  anxiety  and  their  oral  performance  was  found, r(300)  =  -.71,  p
