Summary of the study
The goal of the thesis was to identify factors affecting grade 11 students motivation in learning English. The study also aimed at being a guide for the teacher candidates to be able to understand their learners’ personal or environmental problems and help them to create more motivating environments
Recommendations
Basing on the findings drawn from the research instruments, the researcher would like to suggest some recommendations about this research:
- Teachers should motivate the students by establishing environment of affection, coordination and participation
- Teachers should enhance the learning goals among the students by emphasizing on their positive feedback
Limitations
Although the research has reached its aims, there were some unavoidable limitations. First, the students whom we reached to ask to take our questionnaire were not truly a random sample. Second, the research was conducted only on a limited number of participants in one high school in Que Vo district which made the use of advanced statistical methods impossible thus the results of the study can only indicate the potential application of the findings to broad population
Suggestions for further study
Due to shortage of time and lack of resources the researcher cannot study the whole picture of the factors affecting students' motivation in learning English at the school
