The subjects of this research consisted of the first, second and third-semester learners of Nautical and Technical Department in 20182019 academic year and 5 instructors. The total subjects consisted of 23 learners taken by applying a purposive random sampling technique. In collecting the data, the researcher conducted interview and gave questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a qualitative approach based on Miles and Huberman’s analysis which consisted of three steps, namely data condensation, data display, and drawing and verifying conclusions. The findings of the research revealed that there were 11 demotivating factors namely difficulty of learning English, learning environment, a lot of learning tasks and activities, teachers’ competence and teaching styles, teachers’ characteristics, teachers’ inactivity attending the class, lack of interest (intrinsic motivation), negative attitude towards English, sense of incompetence, lack of specified purpose to learn English, and reduced self-confidence. In order to reduce the demotivating factors in learning Maritime English, the learners applied cognitive, social, affective, metacognitive, and memory learning strategies. Meanwhile, there were six motivational teaching strategies employed by the instructors, such as 1) developing learners’ instrumental motivation, 2) promoting positive and favorable self-perceptions of competence in learning English, 3) increasing the learners’ interest and involvement in learning, 4) using cooperative learning techniques, 5) providing high expectation and using rewards or gifts to learners, and 6) sharing positive learning English related experiences in class. Then, the learners expected that the instructors should: 1) provide various, interesting, creative and attractive activities and learning materials; 2) create a relaxed, attractive and positive learning climate; 3) provide effective and good explanation; 4) always encourage, engage and give motivation to learners; 5) be emphatic, acceptance and patient to learners; and 6) provide more opportunities to practice and use English.
