The language anxiety is a distinct complex of self-perceptions, beliefs, feelings and behaviors related to foreign language learning due to the uniqueness of the language learning process. Thus, examining students’ perception of language anxiety in relevance with speaking performance is critical because it is only by examining their self-perception so that we can understand their positive and negative point of view that lies within the foreign language anxiety. The objective of this study are: to analyze students’ perception about language anxiety, to identify the effect of language anxiety in students speaking performances based on the students perception; to identify the sources and influential factors of the students anxiety; and to identify the solutions that may reduce students’ anxiety from the learner standpoint.
