Active learning encourages students to actively participate in classes and contributes to the formation of a better learning community between teachers and students. This research focuses on student emotions for mitigating the disadvantages of active learning: a longitudinal perspective to investigate mainly the relationships between students’ English proficiency improvement and students’ foreign language enjoyment (FLE)/foreign language classroom anxiety (FLCA). In conclusion, students with low anxiety early in class can expect to improve their English proficiency.
