| Summary: | This study seeks to explore the strategies used by a fifth-semester student from an English language teaching program from a public university to cope with speaking anxiety and to identify the external factors that may cause this specific type of anxiety. For this, a qualitative methodology was implemented, specifically an exploratory case study of a public university's fifth-semester student of the English language teaching program. Data were collected by non-participant observations, interviews, and a solicited diary. Finally, The findings found were strategies to cope with speaking anxiety (vocabulary practice, Using /relying on fillers, and positive thinking), external factors that may cause speaking anxiety (Lack of preparation, Limited Vocabulary, grammatical errors, and fear of making mistakes), and signs of speaking anxiety (Biting the nails, Trembling Voice, Moving the legs, and Avoiding Teacher’s eye contact). |
