Then, external factors such as bad networks, no phones or computer, limited quotas and no Wi-Fi so that students often miss material. Furthermore, no feedback from teachers, lack of disciplines among teachers in sharing materials and assignments, and no class discussion have affected students’ motivation in using Google Classroom. However, they still work on assignments because they have the purpose to get good grades, to be the champions of the class, and to avoid punishment at the end of the semester. Based on findings, it is recommended that teachers should pay attention to these factors so that students motivation in learning using Google Classroom increases better.  Keywords: EFL students motivation; Google Classroom; internal factors; external factors

The result of this research showed there were three problems faced by the teacher: the teacher was hard to find suitable media in preparing the lesson, hard to organize and detect students’ seriousness, and hard to measure students’ listening comprehension. Those problems were also caused by some factors that the researcher qualified into three: students’ network connection or signal, students’ device did not support with the suitable media, and students’ internal factors. The teacher resolves the problems with choosing a suitable application based on the students’ device capability and puts more attention on their students’ learning motivation.
