So it could be concluded that the factors that could affect the students' anxiety in learning English as a foreign language are internal and external. Internal factors include perception, personality, and intelligence. While external factors include motivation, classroom environment, and cognitive. As for what affects students' achievement in learning English as a foreign language, they are afraid of being given a negative evaluation, when they make mistakes and are afraid of being laughed at by their classmates, it makes them afraid to explore themselves further about foreign language learning.
