    In the present research, a quantitative study is conducted in order to know what motivates Chilean students to enter a teaching program at Andrés Bello University. In Chile, pedagogy is a controversial topic due to the fact that for many years, the Chilean government has been trying to attract the most qualified students into teaching programs being the efforts not enough. Therefore, knowing what motivates students would help accomplishing this goal. Motivation was measured applying the FIT-Choice Scale to 143 students from four teaching programs: Elementary Education, Musical Education, Physical Education, and English Teaching. In order to analyse the data, descriptive statistics were implemented which were the mean, standard deviation, and median being crucial exponents to have a complete and reliable base to find results and draw conclusions on the topic. The results obtained in this study showed that shaping the future of children and adolescents was one of the most important factors to choose a teaching career.
