Therefore, this class room action research aims at determining TBL implementation enhance to learners’ achievement motive in English for Report Writing Course. The samples used in this study are purposively selected from 105 English for International Communication Undergraduate Students studying in Faculty of Liberal Arts, Rajamangala University of Technology Suvarnabhumi Ayutthaya, Thailand in the academic year of 2009. The study draws attention to the effects of TBL implementation on intermediate undergraduate learners’ achievement motive including the effects on learning achievement levels of thinking: remembering, understanding, and applying. However, the learning achievement levels of thinking in analysing, evaluating, and creating of upper-intermediate undergraduate learners is significantly higher than others. On this basis, it is recommended that TBL may not only be the effective choice of teaching methodology to implement in large language classes with differential learners proficiency but also it could enhance to learners’ achievement motive.
