Self-confidence is a character that human beings should have and develop in their life. Through character, we can express our opinions smoothly, do things calmly, and can also become leaders for those who lack confidence. Lack of self-confidence in students can hinder the achievement of the learning process. The lack of self-confidence is based on many factors, one of which is an inaccurate learning strategy.
