This paper, based on a survey among a group of students and the author’s observation of the Chinese students’ English learning, studies the main problems Chinese English major students face in developing their oral skills: Lack of confidence and lack of practice, two major obstacles to their improvement. In effect, students’ lack of confidence is closely related to their fear of losing face, which, in turn, affects their motivation to seek opportunities to practice the target language. Learning the language this way has actually created a vicious cycle of learning, which explains why satisfactory teaching effects cannot be achieved. Following a detailed analysis of the students’ problems and related factors, the author presents some practical classroom strategies in a holistic approach, which has proved helpful in dealing with the problems. Those strategies effectively help lower students’ “affective filter” and overcome their fear of losing face so as to build up their self-confidence. Additionally, these strategies help provide students with adequate opportunities for oral practice of the language, thus transforming the previous vicious cycle into a virtuous one and eventually resulting in enhancing the students’ communicative competence. （空一行，此行字号为五号） Key words: Chinese students; oral skills development; self-confidence; practice; communicative competence Contents （空一行，此行字号为五号） 摘 要 I Abstract II Chapter One Introduction 1 Chapter Two English, English majors and English lessons in curricula in China 2 Ch
