In modern psychological and pedagogical sources various approaches to teaching a foreign language are presented, which is considered as a means of developing professional competence. At the same time, there is a lack of systematic psychological and pedagogical research papers of the conceptual foundations of the L2 acquisition using e-learning technologies.
Implementation of e-learning as the instrument and the tool for L2 acquisition (in our research Maritime English acquisition) can be successful under different psycho-pedagogical conditions. We offer own model of psycho-pedagogical conditions of effective e-learning. This model includes the basic psychological and pedagogical theories, which are the basis for implementation of e-learning. The psychological processes involved in this type of educational technology are defined. The main contribution of our study is the finding of psychological barriers to effective adaptation to e-learning. We offer practical recommendations to teachers of a foreign language who are just beginning to introduce this technology into the educational process.
