Summary
English is learned by Indonesian students gradually from the first grade of junior high school up to university level the students’ English mastery is still quite limited. It is because English is only used as a foreign language and the students do not use it in their daily life as a communication tool. Self-efficacy concept is linked to everyone’s belief in evaluating their capabilities to perform given tasks successfully (Goulao, 2014). It means student’s learning outcome is influenced by self-efficacy that all students have
