How to motivate learners?
The acquisition of another language is a long process and it requires patience and perseverance. Therefore, teachers must learn how to instill in the students intrinsic motivation that will make them learn easily to communicate in another language.
Some ways to motivate students to learn is to point out the higher goal of learning a language, and why it is so important to do so. We must encourage them to use language in real life situations, and even to begin thinking in the target language.
Other ways to motivate the learners are the following: to make creative activities, student centered approach, active learning involved. Tell them what the ultimate outcome will be if they really learn how to communicate in the target language.
All these united with the effort of the learners, teachers and parents will yield good fruit motivating everyone to do his/her job, and to succeed in the learning of another language.
