A Study on the Krashen's “Affective Filter Hypothesis” in English Teaching

Yang Gao

Abstract


The second language acquisition theory has a certain enlightenment eff ect on English teaching. Teaching is divided into two
aspects: teaching and learning. From the perspective of student acquisition, American linguist Krashen (1981) proposed a complete set of
second language acquisition models, which provided reference for foreign language teaching. Its theory is based on fi ve hypotheses: input,
emotional fi ltering, acquisition mechanism and output. Among them, the aff ective fi lter hypothesis was originally proposed by Dulay and
Burt, mainly to explain the infl uence of aff ective factors on foreign language learning. Krashen developed this theory, which he described as
many aff ective variables as possible that contribute to second language acquisition. Teachers can take various teaching methods to reduce the
emotional fi lters of students in teaching, just like making visitors feel ease at home, so as to maximize students’ enthusiasm for learning and
improve teaching eff ects.
