The use of ICT in oral presentations has been the subject of numerous studies. Still, few have looked at the use of ICT to enhance confidence and presentation skills. This study addresses how students view using ICT to improve their oral presentation abilities and how ICT influences their confidence when giving presentations in English classes. This study employs a descriptive qualitative research methodology to provide a comprehensive understanding of five English education students selected from a purposive sample. Interviews centered on students' experiences using ICT in their presentations were used to gather data. Data analysis in this study employs an interactive technique including data condensation, data display, and drawing conclusion. The results of this study show that students believe using ICT to improve their oral presentation abilities is highly advantageous. Students felt their presentations were better, delivered content more effectively, and engaged the audiences by using ICT, thus having a positive impact on their confidence. Despite facing several challenges, the students adapted by making backup plans and using different ICT. With these findings, this study also suggests conducting training and making the most of ICT in education so that it can increase confidence to overcome technological barriers in the classroom.
