The performance of Burundian secondary school pupils in the spoken English differs from one pupil to another and this is caused by many factors including environment parameters.Some perform better than others because they are privileged to have extra lessons after class while others are not and this can be justified by the way they work,so,this is the main concern of this study.It seeks to show how cultural environment can set barriers to the acquisition of the English speaking skill and how cultural environment can set barriers to the acquisition of the English.some questions have been set in order to try to get answers to this serious problem.
