The main goal of the study is to determine the main pedagogical aspects of the ethnocultural characteristics of the individual in the literature. There is a need for a cross-cutting humanization of education, strengthening the personal dimension in pedagogical science and practice. Orientation towards a person (a child, a youth, a student, a well-trained specialist) should become the main goal and content of the education system of the 21st century. The person must be put in the first place. To this end, education should contribute to a person's awareness of his own roots, his place in the world, the assimilation by each individual of the ethnoculture of the community as a way of his being, so that in the future he will be able to enter into a dialogue with other cultures, move freely in their space according to the principle “from knowledge and respect for one's own culture begins to respect other cultures, the desire to study the signs, symbols, codes of another community, to understand their stereotypes of behavior, the peculiarities of the world perception and worldview - the basis of tolerance and unity. " The study was carried out using the following theoretical methods: systems analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, comparison, classification, generalization and systematization, idealization and abstraction. As a result, the main pedagogical aspects of ethnocultural personality traits in literature were identified.
