The motivational aspect has crucial importance as well for activization of all psychological processes – thinking, perception, understanding and digestion of foreign-language material. The article describes the main types of motivation and teaching methods, causing its increase. It is possible to distinguish from objectively existing types of motivation internal and external. The external motives caused by circumstances can strengthen internal motivation, but they haven’t a direct bearing on the contents and process of training. According to psychological researches of motivation and interest when training a foreign language of effort of the teacher have to be aimed at the development of internal motivation of students which proceeds from the activity and possesses the greatest incentive force. The article also shows the role of the teacher in the educational process in terms of philosophy, as an element of semantic triangle G. Frege in pedagogical interpretation of the “teacher–student–lesson”. In this context, the task of the teacher is to create conditions, which are responsible for maintaining interest in the subject. The teacher acts not as the simple observer as how the motivational sphere of students develops, he stimulates its development by system of psychologically thought over receptions.
