primary sources of students? motivation in learning English despite that students?
extrinsic motivation was slightly higher than their intrinsic motivation.
Students? motivation drove from extrinsic motivation to intrinsic
motivation. The extrinsic motivation constructed as a sequence. It began when
teacher was able to provide a systematical learning, use communicative method,
