There  are  several  factors  playing  an  important  role  in  second  language acquisition. As an English teacher  we  have  to  consider  all  the  perspectives  of  our  students,  especially  personality  factors. Self-efficacy is  one  of  them  . It  has a great impact in academic success. Bandura (1977) stated that self-efficacy   could  be  a  personal  judgement of  value    that's communicated  within  the  attitudes  that    one   hold  toward  himself. He defined  it  as a one’s beliefs   judging  his  completion of a task and  believed that has  an impact in the learning process by developing  a learner’s progress (Bandura, 1984).  Self-system plays a very important  role in how a person    comprehends situations and how he or she  acts in response to difficult  situations. Believing in your  ability is the key to succeed in  any situation forms and it is vital   in the self-system.
