Abstract: This research, titled "Confidence Level on Public Speaking Skill of Senior High School Students at Partida National High School," explores the relationship between students' confidence levels and their public speaking abilities among 182 senior high school respondents. Recognizing public speaking as a crucial skill for academic and professional success, the study highlights how confidence significantly influences effective communication. It aims to identify factors affecting public speaking skills, such as self-esteem, pronunciation, audience engagement, glossophobia, and overall performance, while also examining how improved public speaking can enhance confidence. Grounded in the Four Cs of Public Speaking Skill Theory—Commitment, Consciousness, Consistency, and Challenge—the research seeks to uncover barriers like stage fright and lack of preparation that hinder student confidence. By providing insights into these dynamics, the study aspires to offer recommendations for enhancing public speaking skills and self-confidence among students, ultimately contributing to their personal and professional development.
