The present study investigated the impact of Community Language Learning (CLL) approach as a remedy for Tripoli private and public secondary school students who suffer from speaking anxiety in EFL classes. Data was collected from the quantitative and qualitative method results, through pre post questionnaire to answer the study questions.

The findings suggested that language anxiety may originate from the learners themselves, teachers or the learning environment which leads to students' language learning difficulties, fear of making mistakes and losing their identity. The investigation broadened the insight into the issue of language anxiety in the Lebanese classrooms, and helped not only students but also teachers in alleviating learners` language anxiety, promoting motivation to speak English and increase Language acquisition. The findings of this study proved by statistics that CLL is a beneficial teaching approach to enhance learners' oral communication abilities in the target language.
