The aim of this paper is to pursue predictors contributing to speaking proficiency in high school and university settings, which is expected to be contributory to further research of English language teaching. In this paper, the data obtained were computed and the multiple regression analysis was conducted with the results of the "topic-based test", which was the dependent variable, and the other tests plus eight metacognitive factors were the independent variables. The result showed that the differences between the two levels of contributing factors exhibited an intriguing result from the linguistic and metacognitive perspectives. In regard to high school students' speaking proficiency, the predictor, Comprehensive English ability had a statistical significance to speaking, whereas the factor didn't emerge as a crucial predictor in university students' speaking proficiency. Regarding Grammatical ability, the data showed the negative significance in the high school setting and the positive significance in the university setting. As far as the metacognitive aspect is concerned, the divergent results turned out as follows: 'Lack of linguistic processing ability' in high school, and 'Anxiety about delivery ability' etc. in university.
