| dc.description.abstract | Language anxiety has been proven to be one of the most important examined variables in both psychology and education (Horwitz, 2001). For this reason the main purpose of this study is to uncover the possible link between FL anxiety and students' speaking performance. It also seeks to assess both teachers' and second year LMD students' perspectives towards the effect of anxiety on EFL students' performance in oral presentations at the English department of Oum El Bouaghi University. It similarly tries to identify possible internal or, external factors that make the participants more anxious when performing orally in classroom in order to be able to suggest the most appropriate strategies capable of reducing EFL second year students' anxiety, during oral presentations. To achieve the present investigation main interests, a descriptive method was used. Two questionnaires were administrated to (40) EFL students and (10) English language teachers at the English department of Oum El Bouaghi University. Research finding revealed that both teachers and students hold negative perspectives towards anxiety and that most EFL students feel anxious when presenting a task orally. Results as well asserted that anxiety affected students' speaking skill in particular. Surprisingly, students' and teachers' responses revealed that both teachers and students seem aware about reasons behind second year LMD students' anxiety and knowledgeable about strategies capable of minimizing FL anxiety during oral presentations. | ar |
