Abstract

This study explores the impact of active participation in the Language Lounge Community (LLC) on Discord in building confidence in speaking English among its members. Through semi-structured interviews with ten participants, the research uncovers significant improvements in their communication skills, reduced anxiety, and increased self-assurance in speaking English. Key factors contributing to this progress include regular participation in community activities, opportunities for self-expression, and constructive feedback from peers. The findings highlight the importance of a supportive and non-judgmental environment, which helped members overcome initial nervousness and gain confidence. This study emphasizes the role of online communities in fostering language learning, particularly for those facing emotional and psychological challenges in speaking a foreign language.
