Abstract
This descriptive study unfolds the far reaching impact of motivated teaching of English as a foreign language which ultimately enables the students become independent language learners. The study was conducted, by administering an opinionnaire, on one hundred male and female public sector secondary school teachers in Punjab engaged in the teaching of English as a foreign language. The results of the study reflect that there’s a consciousness among the subjects about motivated English language teaching which plays a highly significant role in the academic and professional life of students. The study further manifests that there’s a yawning gap between the teaching interventions of the motivated and un-motivated language teachers; motivated language teaching not only improves language skills of the students but also enhances students’ confidence required in the demonstration of English as a foreign language. It suggests that during in-service training of secondary school teachers special sessions be arranged on how to become a motivated foreign language teacher.
