Sammanfattning: This study is based on teachers' experiences of how they work with speech anxiety pupils inthe classroom in the Swedish subject in 4th grade at verbal presentations and opinions. The purpose is to find out how a teacher understands and supports a speech fear pupil in oral submissions and opinions. The questions that the study will be based on are: What methods and working methods are used to prevent and promote pupils' talents? How does the teacher visualize and supports speech anxiety pupils in the classroom at oral presentations and opinions? In what way is the work of rhetoric benefiting speech anxiety pupils? The study consists of qualitative methods based on observations and interviews. Data has been collected through four observations and three interviews. The result has shown that in the classroom there are between three and five pupils who either suffer from speech anxiety or who are merely silent. Oral presentations are something that most pupils feel discomforted and therefore the teacher adjusts the teachings according to the pupil's needs and prerequisites. The teacher has varied teaching to enable all pupils to feel included, thus creating confidence and self-esteem through different working methods andgroup size. Furthermore, it was found that the teachers work with a good classroom climate for the student's learning and development. To get a functioning classroom and education, the class must work socially. The conclusion is that teachers already at the lower stage work deliberately and actively with oral requests for the pupils to become good talents in the long run. It is essential that a safe classroom environment is created, and that the teacher communicates with pupils who do not speak about their needs. In addition, it's important that speech anxiety and silent pupils get practice in speaking so they can strengthen their speech, become more visible and comfortable with their speech in front of other pupils
