| Abstract: | Abstract—This study investigated the causes of language anxiety and the coping mechanisms employed by Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSED) English majors at West Visayas State University, Himamaylan City Campus. As English was a widely used language for global communication, English majors were expected to exert a highly proficient level of language performance, which invited scrutiny that carried pressure. Thus, this study identified four main sources of language anxiety related to speaking, such as fear of judgment and making mistakes, number and nature of audience, preparation, and level of self-esteem, which considerably affected students' oral performance and resulted in emotional distress like stress or emotional strain for students in education and assessment settings. To better understand these factors, the researcher used an open-ended interview guide to conduct this study in six participants. Collection, analysis, and interpretation of the data were facilitated using Braun and Clarke's Thematic Analysis. Although the researchers found differences in both situations, the students all experienced anxiety as a normalizing outcome as students, expectations they put on themselves and that others placed on them, fear of negative evaluation, and lack of experiences with large audiences. However, the participants also shared effective coping mechanisms such as the importance of habitually and repeatedly practicing presentations, engaging in positive self-talk, utilizing acceptable systems of social support, gradually and systematically exposing oneself to larger audiences, and employing physical methods like deep breathing and strategic pauses. These strategies helped mitigate anxiety and fostered confidence. The study emphasized the importance of supportive environments that promote learning while minimizing the risk of failure. This research enabled teachers to understand the intricacies of experiences caused by different psychological and sociological factors and to develop teaching strategies that alleviate anxiety while encouraging healthy developmental progression on various fronts. |
