It is argued that student’s motivation has positively instigated learning outcomes. Motivation among students is initiated by other factors, mainly teachers’ ability to organize the language classroom. Thus, this paper provides several ways the teachers should do to enhance their students’ competence like actively involve students in the learning and give feedback to students learning progress.
