    The present study aims at serving teaching and learning foreign languages by raising teachers' awareness about the importance of their feedback through investigating the effects of their positive feedback on diminishing students' anxiety. Consequently, the hypothesis has been stated for this research is:" teachers' positive feedback helps in minimizing students' anxiety in EFL classes". In order to reach the aim of the study and, therefore, confirm or reject the aforesaid hypothesis, two questionnaires were designed. One of them was delivered to forty (40) first year LMD students in the department of English at Larbi Ben Mhidi University. The other one was distributed to a sample of fifteen (15) teachers in the same department. The participation of both students and teachers in this study is very important in order to know their opinions about the topic under investigation and obtain more reliable data. After analyzing the data and interpreting the results, our hypothesis was confirmed. In other words, teachers and students agreed upon the point that teachers' positive feedback is a helping factor for decreasing students' anxiety in EFL classes.
