Abstract

By using adapted FLCAS as a questionnaire among 100 English majors from four different grades of Beijing Institute of Technology, Zhuhai, this study investigated the current English learning anxiety situation, the difference between different grades of English majors and the reasons of it. The results show that English majors at Beijing Institute of Technology, Zhuhai have moderate English learning anxiety and they are the most anxious at the aspect of communication apprehension. And for the English learning anxiety difference between two groups of participants, although high-grade students are slightly less anxious than low-grade students in communication apprehension, fear of negative evaluation, test anxiety and negative belief towards English, no significant difference between high grades and low grades is found. Based on these findings, this study provides some suggestions for future English learning and teaching for English majors.
