An investigation of attitude, motivation and anxiety levels of students studying at a faculty of tourism towards vocational English course



The aim of the study is to analyse
attitude, motivation and anxiety levels of students at a state university
studying at a faculty of tourism towards vocational English course. In the
study, quantitative research and survey method were used. 325 students
participated in the study voluntarily. Attitude Scale towards Vocational
English Course, Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) and
Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB) were used in the research to collect
data. At the end of the study, the students' attitude and motivation levels
towards vocational English course were at “Agree” level, and their anxiety
levels were at “Slightly agree” level. Attitude, motivation and anxiety levels
of students did not differ in terms of age. There was a significant difference
between attitude, motivation and anxiety levels in terms of department,
achievement and additional study. There was a significant difference in
anxiety, while there was no significant difference in attitude and motivation
levels in terms of gender.  While
attitude and anxiety did not differ, motivation differed in terms of tourism experience
of the students.
