This study employs mixed research method, involving forty-eight participants. To gather the data, questionnaires and interview on students’ anxiety are used as the instrument.

Additionally, students’ low confidence in listening process and task, difficulty to concentrate, text speed, and confusion when listening to important information were related to listeners’ characteristic theme.
