- Abstract
This study explores “self-anchoring” in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students during live Public Speaking classes. Self-anchoring involves shaping students’ public speaking identity through learning experiences. The researchers analyzed data from twenty-seven students at State Makassar University using qualitative research methods, specifically thematic analysis. The findings indicate that self-anchoring in students is fostered through enhanced focus, enthusiasm, self-confidence, and motivation, with practice, instructor feedback, and communication challenges playing key roles. Additionally, social interactions significantly impact self-anchoring. This study enhances the understanding of self-anchoring in Public Speaking classes and suggests teaching strategies emphasizing confidence building, constructive feedback, and positive social interaction to enhance EFL students’ public speaking skills.
