Abstract: This research identifies factors that affect learners’ motivation to learn English as a Second Language (ESL). A quantitative, descriptive-correlational approach was employed, surveying 169 Grade 10 learners through a total enumeration sampling technique, focusing on the motivation levels (Autonomy, Competence, and Relatedness) and affecting factors. The findings of this study revealed that (1) the majority of the learners were 15–16-year-old females with 90-94 English grades during the first quarter; (2) learners’ motivation levels in learning ESL were “Moderately High”; (3) the most agreed-upon factor was the teacher influence under competence motivation level; and (4) parental support significantly impacted learners’ English learning outcomes. These results underscore the need for targeted intervention programs. The proposed “PAMILYA MUNA” program aims to address these issues. Future research should evaluate this program’s effectiveness before broader implementation.
