Abstract: Abstract Language mindset is the belief that language ability is either malleable (growth language mindset, GLM) or static (fixed language mindset, FLM). Students’ language mindset has been investigated from a number of dimensional perspectives such as students’ general language intelligence, language attitude, and critical age (Wilang, 2024). That research utilized a tool of Language Mindset Inventory (LMI) consisting of three dimensions above. This research aimed to (1) investigate Indonesian students’ perception on language mindset seen from the dimensions of gender, cultural and environmental influence, and self-perception of ability and progress apart from the priorly-mentioned dimensions and (2) compare students’ language mindset of both Indonesia and Thailand. Forty-one students of Politeknik Negeri Bali were involved as research participants. A set of google form consisting of 36 questions from 6 dimensions were answered by the respondents. Result of data qualitative analysis revealed that most students of Indonesian foster growth language mindset. Similarly, Thai students also fostered that they possess growth language mindset more than fixed mindset. The finding will then be used to design a growth-mindset-based English learning mo-dule and model to affix the English learning in both countries.
