Personality Factor

Well, as you know in the previous post I mentioned there are many barriers to acquire english language which affect the cognitive side of the brain. It's the case of  The emotional side, which should be prepared to receive (tolerating a stimulus, not avoinding it) , responding (people should be willing to receive and to respond voluntarily an answer), valuing, they have an organization (hierarchy of values) , and also a value system (people should internalize beliefs, ideas and attitudes of the other people).

Also there are other specific personality factors which also affect the cognitive side of the brain, I'm talking about Self esteen, It's related to self judgement, selfconfidence (which evaluates the approval or disapproval of ourselves as people we are), the idea is getting a higher level of self esteen to facilitate the second language acquisition.  A low level of self esteen will be an obstacle to acquire the second language.

At the same time, other type of factors are Inhibitions (to create a defense to protect our ego); Risk taken (to be impulsive); Anxiety (frustration, self doubt, worry); Empathy ( putting yourself into someone else's shoes); Extroversion (affirmation) and Introversion (quiet but reserve).

So if we give a look to these factors, we can understand there are many barriers to be considered to acquire a second language, and as future teachers we have to analize the best way to avoid the negative ones.  In my personal opinion, the idea is to create a comfortable environment where we can accept the other person and mistakes are seen  as the need for acquiring  english language.
