dc.description.abstractLanguage learning is often seen as a enjoyable game, but for many students, it begins with fear. This study explores the connection between language anxiety and second language (L2) proficiency among first-year students at Msila University. The research investigates how feelings of nervousness, self-doubt, and communication apprehension affect learners’ ability to develop fluency in a second language classroom. Using a mixed-methods approach, the researcher gathered data through surveys, interviews, and observations to students to gain a clearer picture of their emotional and academic experiences. The findings reveal an inverse relationship—students who reported higher anxiety levels often demonstrated lower language performance. However, the study also highlights that students under support can transform fear into motivation. These insights show the importance of creating more emotionally supportive learning environments that maximize students’ confidence.
