In light of the progress of information and communication technology development, e-learning is emerging as the paradigm of modern education. However, there is very little to none of the past systematic review that had been conducted on the users’ attitudes towards e-learning and the effects of e-learning in teaching and learning of speaking skills. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review is to synthesise the findings of studies related to users’ attitudes towards e-learning and also the effects of e-learning in teaching and learning of speaking skills in any levels of education. This systematic review used 32 full-text journal articles from the year 2016 until 2020 from ERIC and JURN. Results of this review showed that the most used method in exploring the users’ attitude towards e-learning and the effects of e-learning in teaching and learning of speaking skills was quantitative method. Overall, the results of this review showed that 90.9% of the users have positive attitudes towards e-learning and 100% of the past studies revealed that the use of e-learning has positive effects in teaching and learning of speaking skills despite some limitations.
