Abstract

The empirical study surveys the teaching motivation of 90 college English teachers from 3 different independent colleges. The results show that the Independent College English teachers' internal teaching motivation is stronger than external teaching motivation and the two have a significant difference. the first important influential factors are students' cooperation, salary, and workload, chances for advanced training, family and physical situation. The second important influential factors are cohesion of department, assessment from colleagues and students, the instability of the independent colleges, and the teaching equipments and auditing from the leaders and colleagues. Scientific research has no effect on teaching motivation in the independent colleges which is different from other public universities in China.
