Motivation, which is important in teaching, has a positive or bad impact on the teacher's performance, which is reflected in student learning as a result of the fact that teacher qualifications are intimately linked to the quality of teaching. The aim of this study is to examine the motivational status of foreign language instructors working at higher education institutions in Turkey based on their reasons for choosing the profession of teaching, their contentment with it, their self-efficacy beliefs, and student characteristics. A qualitative case study research method was adopted for the research and the data was collected through interviews via Google forms used in a similar study in a different discipline (Tünkler, 2021). It was aimed to shed light on the motivation status of EFL instructors on foreign language teaching. The results show that foreign language instructors are found to be satisfied with their professions and have self-efficacy skills for foreign language teaching. Additionally, their motivation level showed positive correlation with their students’ motivation level and skills.
