We present results from optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the pre-main sequence star V1184 Tau. The star is associated with the Bok globule CB 34 and it was considered as a FUOR candidate in previous studies. Our CCD photometric data (UBVRI) obtained from October 2000-April 2002 show non-periodic changes in the brightness with amplitude of about 0.6 (V). In the period of observations, V1184 Tau remained at the maximum brightness without increasing or decreasing. Two medium dispersion optical spectra of V1184 Tau were obtained in 2001. Significant changes in the profile and strength of the emission peak in the Hα line were found. The [OI] line (λ 6003) is also seen in emission while the sodium doublet is still in a deep absorption. The comparison of our photometric and spectroscopic results suggests that V1184 Tau has the characteristics of a WTTS.
