Abstract

Abstract Research has demonstrated that being positive has an influence on students’ performance. Nonetheless, previous studies have not focused on the effects of positivity on linguistics education experience. Therefore, the researcher sought to assess the impact of positivity on linguistic learning experiences among female college learners enrolled in an English course. The researcher constituted two classrooms: Class A received positivity-enhancement exercises throughout the course while Class B received the exercises for halfway the course period. In addition, the performance of participants was assessed using three English tests, which were administered at the onset, midway, and end of the course period. Further, the students participated in a survey that examined their level of positivity. The results revealed that Class A had a higher improvement in performance than Class B. The researcher concluded that positivity has a significant influence on linguistic learning experience. The study recommended that teachers should work towards improving the learning environment in order to boost students’ positivity.
