Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate various teaching strategies that novice teachers of English as a foreign language implement in order to cope with anxiety and stress experienced in the classroom setting. Furthermore, this study also examined what strategies the novice teachers perceived to be more effective, as well as their reasoning for implementing certain strategies. To collect the necessary data, a list of stressors which were proven to have the greatest effect on classroom management was extracted from a study by Pavićević (2013), and a 9-question form was developed. The questionnaire was administered to 49 novice teachers of English as a foreign language. The results of the research point to communication and improvisation as most commonly implemented strategies and suggest that more experienced teachers implement these strategies more easily.
