The purpose of this paper is to perform an analysis of motivation, anxiety and self-esteem factors in the learning of English as a foreign language. The notions, typologies and perspectives of each one of these socio-affective factors and their impact on the learning of a foreign language were critically reviewed. It was found that those factors had a marked influence on the success or failure in the process of learning a language and that, entering into a direct or inverse relationship due to their relative autonomy. In addition to the personal factors, the contextual factors were also described, and it was assumed that the role played by the teacher as a pedagogical agent, since it is related to the form and behavior of the students in the classroom. Consequently, it was established that the personal and contextual factors do not operate in isolation, but they presuppose each other. The paper has a great significance for teachers, as it allows them to recognize the importance of socio-affective factors in learning a language and make them think that incorporate flexible strategies in their work allow the development of a favorable environment for learning.
