Fears and anxieties of University students in learning English for professional purposes
Lately, several Faculties within the scope of the Zagreb University (4) chose to suspend English classes, believing them to be superfluous since, as the common wisdom states, everyone speaks English today. However, it has become obvious that many students have struggled with learning English during their secondary education and haven't obtained the desired level of proficiency necessary for reading professional literature, fundamental for their studies. Students’ views and attitudes towards any language (including English) may reveal a lot about issues and problems they might be facing as well as their reasons for learning a language. By means of a survey, in this paper we have tried to examine the attitudes of students of the University of Zagreb’s Faculty of Mining, Geology and Petroleum Engineering and students of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, towards learning professional English as well as their fears and anxieties connected to foreign language learning.
