| dc.description.abstract | The research ‘Classroom Performance of Low Achievers in English Language Classroom’ was carried out to explore the classroom performance of low achievers in English language classroom and to find out the possible reasons behind their low achievement. This study was based on narrative inquiry research design. In order to meet the objective of the study, four students of grade 11 studying at a public school were selected as samples using purposive non random sampling strategy. In depth interview was used as the tool to collect data. For that, some guideline questions were prepared. The respondents’ experiences were taken as the primary data. The collected data were analyzed using thematic analysis approach. Moreover, the low achievers’ grade sheets of previous class were also collected and analyzed descriptively. From the analysis and interpretation of data, it was found out that the low achievers who failed to meet the target and who performed passively in classroom had to go through a number of challenges. Their classroom performance is found to passive and less involvingin the classroom activities. They lack the ability to engage themselves in classroom interactions like pair or group work, group discussion, presentation etc. From the responses of the participants it can be said that they lack concentration and attention power to involve themselves in learning. Furthermore, their achievement is affected due to factors like lack of parents’ support, lack of adequate learning materials and lack of motivation. They are left behind because of their fear of making mistakes. Fear of making mistakes has decreased their self confidence. This thesis consists of five chapters.
