Abstract—Research on Willingness to Communicate (WTC) WTC in the classroom for Chinese postgraduate students who are studying in British universities, rather than in second language learning classes, adopted a quantitative method to find out related factors and seek answers. Although it may be difficult for learners to change their beliefs about appropriate classroom behaviour, their long-term conceptual framework of evaluating teaching and learning experience in the one-year postgraduate program abroad and the ways of eliciting more participation from students and facilitating their learning process need to be investigated.
