Abstract

This study aimed to compare the male and female pre-service teachers’ motives in becoming EFL teachers and to find out whether there was any difference between male and female pre-service teachers’ motives to become teachers. The quantitative research with survey design was applied to collect the data from three private teacher-training institutions of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. SPSS 24 was used to analyze the data. The findings indicated that the Sig.

The mean score for female was 2.90 with the standard deviation of 0.38 and for male was 2.94 with the standard deviation of 0.26.
