Approaches to motivating English language

Abstract

In the field of foreign / second language (L2) learning, motivation has long been recognized as one of the key factors that determine L2 achievement and attainment. Actually, without sufficient motivation even the brightest learners are unlikely to persist long enough to attain any really useful language proficiency, whereas most learners with strong motivation can achieve L2 working knowledge, regardless of their language aptitude or any undesirable learning conditions
