Lesson Plan - Welcome to London!

Odwołując się do definicji Harmera (2001), motywacja to wewnętrzna siła, która popycha jednostkę do wykonywania określonych czynności, aby osiągnąć sukces. Zdobycie sukcesu w nauce języka obcego jest zależne od wielu czynników, do których zalicza się, między innymi, osobowość nauczyciela, jego nastawienie i sposób prowadzenia lekcji.
Jedną z propozycji pobudzenia zainteresowania uczniów językiem obcym są ciekawie prowadzone lekcje.
