you could say you "have a difficulty in speaking english" but "have difficulty in speaking english" is wrong. It is also possible to say you're "having a difficulty in speaking english". The difference is that when you say you're having a difficulty that means it's a current situation but saying you have a difficulty means you're speaking generally
Example: I've always had a difficulty with focusing in school. (general)
I'm having a difficulty fixing the car (current situation)

When ing is put after words they are always actions or verbs, they can be present tense or past tense depending on the context, for example:

shaking
walking
talking
running
speaking
doing
wanting

examples in sentences:

I was shaking with excitement. (Past tense)
I am walking down the street. (present tense)
She keeps talking about me.
I love running in the morning.
I was speaking and he cut me off.
I've been doing alot today.
She's been wanting that doll for forever.

hopefully this helped :)

I have difficulty driving the speed limit.
The reason you add "ing" to the end of the word is to give the sentence both a present and past tense. It means that it is describing something that you have had and are still having difficulty with. On the other hand if you say: I had difficulties speaking English. It takes on a new meaning, that you had an issue in the past that you are no longer facing.

I have difficulty speaking English.
I have difficulty in speaking English.

They are the same meaning.
Howere, the second one might sound more proper to some people.

Ing is usually used when a verb is currently happening or ongoing
I was reading.
I am reading right now.
But ing can also make a verb a noun like in these sentences
Cooking is a fun hobby.
I love meeting new people.
Throwing parties is tiring.
