Sažetak
The attempt to reveal the nature and role of foreign language learners' psychology in learning is not new; however, the extent to which these psychological factors affect foreign language proficiency levels is yet to be unveiled. To understand the relationship between these factors and the achieved level, it is important to examine it from all facets. One of the most significant research scopes is L2 motivation and its influence on the achieved proficiency level in the target language. Understanding these psychological factors can play a crucial role in developing an effective language teaching method that focuses on improving the process of learning a foreign language per se. In its first part, this article aims to analyse different theories in L2 motivation that affect language learning. Its second part gives an overview of the most important teaching methods developed to facilitate the language learning process. In addition, this article discusses the research that has been done on the different teaching methods and their effect on learners' motivation.
