In the context of Saudi FL classrooms, this research investigates the link between Foreign Language Enjoyment (FLE) and a number of characteristics. Total of 143 current high school students, undergraduate, and postgraduate FL Saudi students were considered for this study. The high school students’ study at three high schools, and the undergraduates and postgraduates are students at King Khalid University. An FLE measure was used based on Likert scale ratings of 21 items (MacIntyre & Dewaele, 2014). Qualitative data were collected via the open question included in the online questionnaire. The results of statistical analyses showed a relationship between FLE levels and the following independent variables: age group, education level, FL mastery, and general FL level (ranging from beginners to advanced). Compared to male participants, females reported more FLE. Testimonies from the participants about enjoyable situations in the FL class demonstrated the importance of the instructors' passionate qualities and their adeptness in creating a supportive peer group. Many participants shared their experiences of realizing that their prolonged efforts to become proficient in a particular FL skill had been fruitful.
