INTRODUCTION In learning second language, some people make faster progress than some others do. Some students try hard and get many difficulties. They seem stuck on something that make them really hard to reach the learning goal. They make struggle along the learning and get only very slow progress. It is clearly when someone learn a new language, they will have factors that contribute to the success of language learning. Learning is a process that involve in it, not only cognitive factors but also affective factors. The researcher realizes that cognitive factors are easy to show while affective factors are difficult to describe scientifically. But it does not mean that the affective factors give less contribution than the cognitive do. Cognitive factors defined as the something immaterial as the circumstance or influence that contributes to producing a result. Cognitive factors refer to characteristics of the person that affect performance and learning. In this way, cognition has to do with how the world will be understood by a person and act in it. Messick's (1993: 199) says that cognitive styles are characteristic modes of perceiving, remembering, thinking, problem solving, decision making that are reflective of information processing regularities that develop in congenial ways. Affective factors defined as emotional factors which influence learning. They can have a negative or positive effect. Because affective factors also produce negative effects, the lecturers or the instructors in the classroom should build the learning atmosphere to decrease the negative effects. These factors involve cognitive functions like attention, memory, and reasoning (Danili & Reid, 2006). Thus, from those affective factors we know, learning foreign language is not a simple thing to do. It is a complex process when a learner speaks language which is not spoken in his mother tongue. Learner will get some obstacles and difficulty to do. As Bialystok, E. (1991) suggests that Language learning is a complex process. That affective factors play important role, it should contribute to the progress of learning. Some of those affective factors clearly mentioned by Brown (2000) He says that the affective domain is the emotional side of human behavior and it involve a variety of
