Özet: Teacher’s motivation plays a key role in their career success. Recognising the factors which impede an ideal performance in teaching helps curriculum developers and instructional managers to resolve the issue as much as possible. This is not valueless to investigate and deploy possible solutions from which are being experienced in different types of instructional institutes. Therefore, to find the possible differences between the institution teachers and public-school teachers, the present study was initiated. It was also aimed to compare the motivation sources in their teaching context. So, English teachers’ motivation was measured regarding their intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The results suggest that there is a significant difference between two types of teachers. In fact, teachers in private institutions have more motivation than public-school teachers. The findings of present study indicate that education system, school managers and supervisors need to motivate teachers towards teaching English.
