The factors influencing on the successful studying of a foreign language are viewed in the article. The author shows their correlation and influence on the process of studying of a foreign language. The methodical and psychological aspects of studying of a foreign language are examined in the article. Various types of psychological barriers that arise among cadets in the process of learning a second language are considered, some views of domestic and foreign psychologists on this topic are analyzed, and strategies for overcoming such psychological barriers are determined. The study of a foreign language is influenced by both objective factors: age, gender, ability to learn languages, social factors, etc., as well as subjective, affective factors or filters, such as motivation, personal attitude to a new subject and the process of its assimilation, anxiety, self-confidence and self-esteem. The effectiveness of learning and mastering a foreign language, its further professional use, in addition to the talent of the teacher to use the correct methodology for presenting and activating educational material, the ability to build trusting relationships with students and create a comfortable environment for them in the classroom, largely depends on the psychological state of the students themselves, on the ability to change the prevailing ideas about their abilities to assimilate and freely use foreign language speech both in the classroom and in real life.
