Resumen
In the present study, we will explore how English as a foreign language (EFL) senior
business professionals’ ideal L2-self motivates them to learn the language through selfefficacy. Similarly, we will identify other variables that take part in the process, such as selfconfidence and self-esteem. A qualitative research design was approached having open ended
interviews with 10 EFL adult learners. Results reveal that senior professionals can be highly
influenced by the ideal L2 self when learning L2. Moreover, when they are equipped with
high levels of self-efficacy, self-confidence, and self-esteem, the outcome could be
promising. This investigation was intended to be a contribution to EFL for business
professionals
