Therefore, graduates with multiple language abilitiescan have a competitive advantage over others in the job market. This study investigated the factors which could contribute to student proficiency in French and Chinese and proposed how teachers can motivate students and enhance the foreign language learning of the students who do not study languages as their specialization.Pearson’s correlation was usedto examine whether there was a statistically significant relationship between student proficiency in French and Chinese and five factors (parental support, teacher influence, attitude, perception and classroom environment). From 82 respondents of the questionnaires for the French language and 77 for the Chinese language, it was found out that there was very strong correlation between Perception and Attitude for both French and Chinese courses for students with and without background in the language. For students without a background in French, student perception was also found to be correlated with teacher influence, but not as strongly as with student attitudes. Unlike the French courses, perception was correlated with teacher influence regardless of student background in Chinese. Only for the Chinese language was parental support correlated with students’ perception and also with attitude.
