Abstract
The major problem of this study was to assess the impact of language learning strategies
(LSS) to the language learning anxiety and self-perceived language proficiency of the
senior high school learners in the public high schools in the Municipality of Hagonoy,
Bulacan. The study made use of the descriptive-correlation research design in which
standardized instruments were the primary data gathering tool. The respondents of the
study were the 302 Grade 12 General Academic Strand (GAS) learners. The data were
presented using tables and the results of the study were tabulated and processed using
Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPPS). The results of the study revealed that the
respondents utilized sometimes or on a moderate basis the identified sets of language
learning strategies. On the other hand, the anxiety of the respondents was experienced in
moderation while the level of self-perceived language proficiency was recorded average.
The findings of the study indicated that language learning strategies did not influence
significantly the anxiety conditions except metacognitive strategies. Thus, the study
accepted the null hypothesis which stated that language learning strategies would not
impact significantly on the language learning anxiety of the learners. Moreover, further
analysis of data suggested that language learning strategies did impact significantly on
the students’ self-perceived language proficiency. Hence, the null hypothesis which
postulated that the identified strategies would not impact significantly on the learners’
self-perceived language proficiency was rejected. A number of pedagogical implications
were drawn based on the findings of the study.
