Abstract

This paper investigates Indonesian students’ foreign language anxiety. It seeks to find out the types of anxiety experienced by FL learners and the strategies they use to cope with their anxiety. Questionnaires with a Likert scale ranging from disagree to agree were used to collect data. The findings revealed that the majority of students, despite their gender and level differences, experienced some kinds of FL anxiety and many of them also applied particular strategies to overcome their FL anxiety.
