Recognizing the role of writing skill is important to learn English in academic and social context, the most challenging of this skill for students is lack of motivation in the process of producing written texts. The research employed a quantitative approach with a one-group pre-test and post-test design to measure the improvement of students’ motivation, particularly in creating recount texts.

The students’ mean score increased from 52.87 in the pre-test to 61.27 in the post-test, indicating a statistically significant improvement (p< 0.05).
