Son otuz yılda,yabancı dil kaygısı ve hedef dil performansı ile hedef dilde elde edilen başarılar arasında
negatif korelasyon olduğunu gösteren kayda değer araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Bu kaygının sebepleri ve
sonuçları derinlemesine incelenmiştir. Ancak, öğretmen yabancı dil kaygısı konusunda çok az araştırma
yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma, yabancı dil kaygısı yüksek ana dili İngilizce olmayan öğretmen adaylarının
yaşadığı dil kaygısının nedenlerini ve etkilerini araştırmaktadır. Bulgular, katılımcıların olumsuz
değerlendirme korkusu ve hatalar konusundaki endişeleri nedeniyle kaygı duygularını yaşadıklarını
göstermektedir. Dil kaygısının, öğretmenlerin hedef dili ve öğretmenlerin spontane ve aktif hedef dil
kullanımı gerektiren sınıf etkinliklerini kullanma konusundaki isteksizliği gibi daha önce araştırılmamış
yabancı dil eğitimi üzerinde bir takım olumsuz etkileri olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca, yabancı dil
kaygısı yüksek olan öğretmen adayları kendi sınıfların kendi öğrencilerinin dil hatalarını düzeltme konusunda daha ısrarcı olduklarını söylemektedirler. Yabancı dil kaygısı düşük olan öğretmen adayları
ise kendi sınıflarında kendi öğrencilerinin dil hataları üzerinde daha az durmakta ve daha çok
öğrencilerini yabancı dilde iletişime geçme konusunda destekleyici bir tutum sergilediklerini
söylemeketedirler. Bu makale öğretmen adaylarının potansiyel yabancı dil kaygısını aşmalarına
yardımcı olmak için öneriler yapmakta, ayrıca öğretmenlerin yabancı dil kaygısına ilişkin gelecekteki
çalışmaları yürütmek isteyen araştırmacılara yönelik tavsiyeler de yapmaktadır.

Foreign Language Anxiety Among Prospective Language Teachers

Considerable research on language anxiety has accumulated over the last 30 years indicating
negative correlations between language anxiety and target language performance and overall
success achieved in the target language. However, very little research has been conducted on
teacher language anxiety. This study investigates the causes and effects of language anxiety
experienced by anxious non-native student teachers. The findings indicate the participants
experience feelings of anxiety due to their fear of negative evaluation and concern over errors.
Language anxiety also appears to have a number of negative impacts on foreign language
instruction which have not been investigated before such as teachers’ avoiding speaking the
target language and teachers’ reluctance to use classroom activities that require spontaneous and
active target language use. Recommendations for helping student teachers overcome potential
feelings of foreign language anxiety are made as well as recommendations for researchers
interested in conducting future studies on teacher foreign language anxiety.
