Some are afraid of spiders, some others to water, electricity, aliens and some others are afraid to speak in public. This fear is particularly interesting to understand because it can even affect experienced teachers, not just the new ones. Is it relevant to speak in public in the normal life? Of course not. But it is when a person wants to teach something, which is the goal in the TESOL program in which the author of this work was envolved. Fear implies a sense of situational control and uncertainty and activates a predisposition to appraise future events in line with the central appraisal dimensions that triggered the emotion (for boundary conditions, see Lerner & Keltner, 2000). Then, in language learning, a fear would be the reaction that learners have before situations which threaten their integrity, understood as a situation which could damage their self-esteem or reputation."pdfengHUMANIDADES Y CIENCIAS DE LA CONDUCTAInglés--Estudio y enseñanza--Hablantes extranjerosHablar en públicoMiedo escénicoMaestros--PsicologíaTesis de licenciaturaPsicopedagogíaMaestros de inglés--Capacitación deopenAccess
