Motivation : a state of cognitive arousal which provokes a decision to act as a result of which there is sustained intellectuals and/or physical effort so that a person can achieve some previously set goal' Williams and Burden,1997:120) Motivation .. Is as much a matter of concern for the teacher as it is for the learner , it depends as much on the attitudes of the teacher as on the attitudes of the students (Rodgers 1996:66)

Types of motivation
Extrinsic: caused by external factors. e.g. a desire to be assimilated into the culture of speakers of English (integrative motivation) Intrinsic: the keenness or desire to learn English for its own sake.

Real motivation comes from within each individual . Laily Yahya 7 ( Jeremy Harmer, pp8 1998)
