Research Design
In order to fulfill the objective of this study, quantitative method is used. The
present study aims to investigate the factors conducive to language anxiety in academic
performance of the rizalians (rizal high school students). We created a survey in Google

Population
The respondent of the study is composed of people in the campus of Rizal High
School (Pasig) (2023). One of the vital processes to keep this study successful. All of
these participants was selected through random sampling. This sampling method is
conducted where each member of a population has a capability to become part of the
sample.
The chosen respondents are containing of eighty (20) to one hundred (30)

Data Analysis
From the survey, most of all one hundred (100) participants answer yes in the
question "does language anxiety affect your academic performance?". This shows that

experience such anxiety and exclude them from the analysis. It is the researcher’s
conviction that to obtain reliable results, only the responses of subjects who had
experience such anxiety should be analysed since most of the questions are based on
what transpired in such workshops. The responses to the questions are summarised in
the tables below, of which some consist of a maximum of 30 responses and others
depended on the responses subjects gave in the preceding question. For example,
subjects who chose, for instance, (agree) in a particular question may not be required to
answer the next question. This made the total number of responses for each individual

their classmates.

Conclusion
The conclusion of the findings for the five research questions on the effects of
language anxeity to the students academic performance are based on the findings on
the motivations for their everyday language use specially in school. The conclusions are
stated below:
I. Students’ use of language in the oral sessions depicted their beliefs and values
spontaneous with each other, which allowed for language usage representing
the online written forum entries was more crafted to create a well-thought out opinion
that is more academically inclined and less spontaneous thus, providing a contrast
II. The findings revealed that occasionally, the choice of words and phrases differed
Though, the study was set in a social context, not every value epitomised social
focus as there were many values that suggested personal focus like self-direction in
beliefs and principles as they help mold the individual’s value system.
III. The findings in this study illustrated that students were aware of the values that they
subscribe to. As such, this awareness prompted them to choose the words and
values was credited to their upbringing and the role family, particularly the parents
who played a role in educating, promoting, and instilling these values in them.
However, there were values that the students were unaware of. Thus, it is
worthwhile noting that there exists times when students use vocabulary without any
knowledge that it reflects some form of value, indicating that they were unconscious
of their values.
Recommendations
students can take several steps. Firstly, it is important to create a supportive and non-
judgmental environment. Seeking the assistance of teachers and peers who can
group discussions, debates, and other interactive activities can help students practice
their language skills in a low pressure setting, gradually building confidence. Lastly,
students can engage in regular language practice to improve their proficiency. This can
include reading books, newspapers, or articles in the target language, watching movies
Setting specific language learning goals and tracking progress can provide a sense of
Parent. As a parent, you should be aware of how language anxiety can affect
your child's academic achievement. Language anxiety is the worry or apprehension that
people feel when they use a second or foreign language. This worry may obstruct
language learning and have a negative impact on overall academic achievement. Here
are some suggestions for parents to help their children overcome language anxiety:
tutoring services that align with your child's academic needs, Create a home
environment that encourages open communication and celebrates effort rather than
focusing solely on outcomes, and If your child's language anxiety significantly impacts
and communicate effectively. To help lessen this effect, teachers can consider
using visual aids and hands-on activities, encouraging participation through small group
learning goals and objectives clear. Additionally, teachers can offer reassurance and
positive feedback, differentiate instruction to address individual needs, and build rapport
with students to establish trust. Encouraging students to use their native language in
class can also help reduce anxiety and promote cultural awareness.
organizations information about language anxiety to help the students lessen their
Government. Our government should start a program that help lessen the effect
of language anxiety where all the students can participate. For example giving a reward
when a student won a school dabate where that student represents our city.
