Students learn English with certain motives. Many students seek to improve their careers, others seek to gain confidence, and others plan to live abroad. Thus, the problematic question arises: how do English language skills and learning needs of secondary school students relate to each other? The research aim is to designate the relationship between English language skills and learning needs of secondary school students. The methods of descriptive statistics were used. The Spearman rank correlation coefficient was applied. Mostly the medium correlation and a weak correlation were dominated between English language skills and learning needs. The analysis disclosed that students give more priority to receptive skills ‒ reading and listening than to communicative ‒ speaking and writing skills.
