Effect of emotions on the teaching-learning process:Anxiety is an emotion in which a student suffers problems related to painful discomfort in the mind So the curriculum is always designed as per the needs of the students.?Fear damages the mental and emotional state. Fear makes the student's mind mentally retarded, and students' performance slows down by having fear of different types such as fear of failure, etc. So that the parents, as well as teachers, should have to provide teaching as per the interest of the students.Sometimes the fear overpowers the students in such a manner that they even commit drastic measures.Fear is an emotion that creates high levels of anxiety in a person and causes the loss of courage in a person.So we can say that there is no role of fear in the teaching-learning process.Important Points Some of the other emotions which are seen in daily life are:?Fear: Fear is caused by situations that are perceived as physically threatening.
