<![CDATA[The impact of teacher-student relationships on the motivation of English language learners (ELLs) is a crucial topic in the field of language education, particularly in a multilingual and culturally diverse country such as Indonesia. This study aims to provide an evidence of the link between teacher and student relationships and the motivation among ELLs in Indonesia. The researcher collected, analyzed, and compared the data obtained for this study by using a survey study design. Moreover, the researcher conducted structured interviews with ELL first-year English students to gather additional data. The findings of this study show that teachers at the university investigated, as perceived by students, exhibit a wide range of positive attitudes that positively influence student motivation. The most preferred attitudes among students were Academic Support, Responsible, and Moral Support, which emerged as the most preferred attitude among students. The results of this research show that a supportive classroom environment can enhance learners' motivation throughout their language learning journey, ultimately enhancing their language acquisition and overall success in language learning. This study provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to create an inclusive, supportive learning environment for their students. The study suggests that further studies could broaden the scope to include students from other faculties or universities. This would provide a more comprehensive understanding of lecturer attitudes and their impact on student motivation across different academic settings.]]>
