This study aims to determine the variables that affect the Pedagogy of National and Foreign Language Majors at Santa Elena University in Ecuador and what inspires young students to begin and complete this major. Quantitative research is used in this study. A survey in Google Forms was used to gather data, and multiple-choice questions included 100 students selected randomly from the UPSE Pre-university courses. They are members of both locations at the Villamil Playas branch and the UPSE headquarters. This study shows that most students are intrinsically driven to become English teachers because they enjoy the language. However, some of them were under family pressure. A sizable portion is determined to earn the major despite all odds. The students must complete a rigorous academic program, achieve CEF proficiency in English at level B2, and work on an educational project based on conducting research at various local institutions as part of their development as major students. Additionally, they get to work on a study case pulled from the classroom where they practice for their pre-professional jobs. To conclude this work, it is necessary to emphasize that while there are many alternatives based on careers like technology and environment, being an English teacher is among the students' choices in Santa Elena Province.
