The objectives of this study were: 1) to determine the influence of Christian Religious Education teachers' teaching styles on the learning motivation of Protestant Christian students in private elementary schools across the Batam Kota District; 2) to determine the influence of interactive learning media on the learning motivation of these students; and 3) to determine the combined influence of Christian Religious Education teachers' teaching styles and interactive learning media on the learning motivation of these students. A descriptive quantitative method was employed. The population consisted of all 115 Protestant Christian students in private elementary schools across the Batam Kota District, all of whom were designated as the research sample. Instrument testing was conducted on 30 fourth- and fifth-grade students from Valentin Batam Elementary School in Lubuk Baja District outside the actual research sample confirming that all research instruments were valid and reliable. Data were collected using a questionnaire comprising 72 positive, closed-ended items. Data analysis results indicated that: 1) the Fcount > Ftable (k;n-2) (2;113) is 71,923 > 3,07 demonstrating a positive and significant influence of Christian Religious Education teachers' teaching styles on student learning motivation, contributing 38,9%); 2) the Fcount > Ftable (k;n-2) (2;113) is 50,282 > 3,07 demonstrating a positive and significant influence of interactive learning media on student learning motivation, contributing 30,8%; and 3) the Fcount > Ftable (k;n-2) (2;113) is 47,217 > 3,07 demonstrating a positive and significant combined influence of teaching styles and interactive learning media on student learning motivation, contributing 45,7%. Consequently, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, and the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected
