Abstract

Abstract: Motivating primary school students to learn English is a key factor in language acquisition, especially in Uzbekistan, where English plays an increasingly important role in education and career opportunities. This study explores effective methods to enhance young learners’ motivation in Uzbek primary schools. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines classroom observation and teacher surveys, the research identifies several successful strategies including gamification, use of multimedia, interactive group work, and culturally relevant materials. The findings suggest that motivation is significantly increased when lessons are enjoyable, interactive, and meaningful. These insights can help improve English language teaching policies and practices in the country.
