This work is the result of a descriptive and exploratory research that sought to investigate and analyze the difficulties and motivation of learners and teachers in the teaching-learning process of the English language, in the context of public school teaching. This is a literature review based on the search for articles in the CAPES Portal of Journals and books focused on the theme. The discussion was carried out based on the theoretical foundation of researchers and philosophers of education and language teaching, within the perspective of foreign language teaching in Brazil, still describing the profile of learning and teachers in public education. Among the possible causes that hinder the teaching-learning process of the English language, the following were found: the exorbitant number of apprentices, the influence of globalization, as well as the lack of appreciation of foreign language teaching. It is inferred that the teacher must work in the context of the learner so that he can arouse interest in learning the English language, breaking with the circle of factors that prevent the acquisition and development of a second language. Both being able and motivated to face the globalized world, where it is essential that the citizen has the ability to communicate in more than one language.
