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
