Abstract

Following a qualitative method approach, this study investigated the anxiety factors of non-native ESL teachers in compulsory school (elementary school, junior high school, and senior/vocational high school). This study involved four teachers as participants working at four different levels of school, and data were collected through qualitative method. The data collection instrument consisted of interview which was then transcribed. The findings derived from qualitative data reveals that factors which make the teachers feel anxious are mostly from the students’ language background, classroom management, teaching experience, students’ number and the most importantly is teachers’ physical condition. Teachers feel anxiety when their physical condition is not good, and students are not competent enough to understand English well. All teachers, especially the one teaching at elementary school, almost always used Indonesian language as the medium of instruction. This study concludes that teachers’ anxiety do not only come from the teachers such as: physical condition, classroom management, teaching experience, but also from the students, such as; students’ discipline, and students’ attitude in classroom.
