Abstract: Motivation is a critical factor in the learning process, influencing not only the decision to begin learning but also the ability to sustain engagement over time.This article explores the different types of motivation-extrinsic and intrinsic-that drive learners, and examines the teacher's role in fostering and maintaining this motivation within the classroom.It also discusses the importance of learner agency and responsibility, emphasizing the need for students to become active participants in their education.Through practical strategies such as appropriate activity selection, affective support, and the promotion of learner autonomy, educators can help students take greater ownership of their learning journey.The article further highlights the role of tools like dictionaries, homework, and self-access centres in encouraging self-reliance and sustained learning beyond the classroom environment.Citation
