The present study aimed to examine the impact of using Skype conversations on English majors’ levels of foreign language anxiety. The research adopted an experimental approach to investigate this impact. The Foreign Language Anxiety Scale (FLAS) by Horwitz et al (1986) was administered to 20 students from the School of Foreign Languages Thai Nguyen university. However, the research adopted only four factors of FL anxiety namely, communication apprehension, fear of negative evaluation, afraid to make mistakes and feeling unable to deal with the tasks with adapted 17 items. The findings indicated that SCMC like Skype could increase opportunities for students’ oral communication outside their classroom, which contributed to their lower anxiety in language learning.
