Intrinsic Motivation

After reading the 5th chapter on Intrinsic motivation in H. Douglas Brown book, i immediately think of what i am going through right now. That i have the will power to go through about 3 more years of school to become a certified ESL and German teacher. I feel that helping young adult and children is extremly rewarding and therefore want to do it for the rest of my life. I think that creating a classroom that can motivate students to want to learn is an extremly important quality a teacher must have in order to be sucessful. I hope that i can be so fortunate to be able to accomplish this. I do not want the students to please me by just doing their homework and getting good grades. I want them to take something away from my teaching that is what would be truly rewarding for me. Creating a desire inside the students.
