Abstract
The misleading assumptions of Indonesian-speaking learners of English on the nature of English results in psychological burden inhibiting the process of teaching and learning. The assumptions should be eliminated at the beginning of English class.

Such approach will gradually lead the learners to self-confidence and self-discovery.Downloads
