Data collection instruments included a diagnostic oral assessment task, three questionnaires, class observations and a research journal. They allowed to generate information about participants’ emotions and practices before and during oral assessments in the English, as well as their perceptions of the phenomena. Results revealed that students’ negative emotions can interfere in their performance when facing oral assessment tasks. Therefore, the teacher implemented different strategies in order to cope with these negative emotions to favor students’ performance.14 p.application/pdfengOral assessmentoral tasksStrategiesOral performanceEmotionshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_46echttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/a
