THE IMPORTANCE OF PSYCHOLOGY IN TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGES FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL PUPILS

Abstract

In today's world, learning foreign languages becomes challenging not only for primary school students but also for undergraduate students. Psychology is a science that studies human behaviour and also language aspects from a cognitive perspective. Various psychological theories and perspectives are found to apply in learning foreign languages; if teachers try to enrich the capability of foreign language learning by using new psychological principles, it contributes to enveloping their pupils enthusiasm to study. The writer observed the critical role of psychology in teaching foreign languages for primary school children by introducing its emotional, social, and cognitive influences. This research explores that learners of foreign languages have a higher association with teaching from psychological-pedagogical analysis. Significantly, according to the observations among primary school classrooms, 50 junior school students achieve academic success in foreign language learning. Overall, this research underscores the significance of psychology in teaching foreign language  for primary school pupils with real-world examples and addresses positive change in children's learning foreign language processes.
