The study aims to find out the motivating factors for English learning by tracking the college students’past motivation change in learning English. The 125 college students participated in the student questionnaire to recall their English learning experience from elementary to the college days. The research findings show that students' motivation to study English dropped sharply during the high school days and high school days was revealed as the lowest motivation period. Major demotivating factors were identified such as 'difficulty of English,' 'the lack of students' will to study,' and 'decrease of the test score,' The grammar-centered, teacher-centered English class was also ranked as the fourth major demotivator. Students motivation has gradually increased from college years and most students' highest motivation period was revealed as college days. The major factors to remotivate the students were 'students' awareness of the value of English,' 'their desire to be good at English,' and 'increased test score.' 'The interesting English teaching method' was also ranked as the fourth influential remotivating factor. Based on the research results, the appropriate English class model for low motivated students was suggested.

The research findings show that students' motivation to study English dropped sharply during the high school days and high school days was revealed as the lowest motivation period. Major demotivating factors were identified such as 'difficulty of English,' 'the lack of students' will to study,' and 'decrease of the test score,' The grammar-centered, teacher-centered English class was also ranked as the fourth major demotivator. Students motivation has gradually increased from college years and most students' highest motivation period was revealed as college days. The major factors to remotivate the students were 'students' awareness of the value of English,' 'their desire to be good at English,' and 'increased test score.' 'The interesting English teaching method' was also ranked as the fourth influential remotivating factor.
