AB Anxiety is one of the determining factors that affects students’ performance in the EFL classroom, not only is the anxiety present in this specific classroom, it affects other subjects and students’ overall development particularly the development of two key competences, linguistic or communicative competence and entrepreneurship. Through the consideration and reflection upon literature regarding the topics of anxiety, teaching approaches, methodology used and the role of the teacher, this dissertation provides a comprehensive set of guidelines to help EFL teachers reduce anxiety and increase students’ willingness to participate, thus benefiting their overall education, along with an example of a possible session which includes these curricular content students must be given bearing in mind the guidelines created. The guidelines described can be implemented and adapted to other subjects and may benefit students learning in other fields apart from EFL and communication in general.
