This article analyzes the didactic factors of language barriers that arise among A2-level learners during the process of learning English. The research findings indicate that the mismatch between teaching methods and students’ proficiency levels, a teacher-centered approach, and the lack of individualized instruction negatively affect students’ speaking performance and require the implementation of more effective pedagogical strategies to reduce these barriers.
