Résumé : |
Various psychological factors play a key role in learners’ success to orally use the foreign
language especially in classrooms. The present research was conducted to investigate the
attitudes of third year EFL students towards the oral use of English in formal contexts at
the University of Tlemcen. Furthermore, our study examines the effect of EFL students’
attitudes and other factors on their language learning achievement in general and, in
particular, their oral performance and participation in the classroom. Throughout this
work, two research instruments were used to collect data: a questionnaire was directed to
third-year EFL students and a structured interview addressed to EFL teachers. Thus, the
obtained results were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The outcomes of this
study revealed that third-year EFL students maintain positive attitudes towards English.
Besides attitudes, self-confidence, motivation, anxiety and learning styles are factors that
have greatly influenced students’ oral use of English in classroom. To conclude, the EFL
learners need to adopt a positive stand towards the oral use of English that would enable
them to orally practice with their teachers inside the classroom and outside. Also, they
have to be self- confident, motivated and reduce their anxiety when they speak in English. |
