Since the Covid-19 virus, all students in Indonesia have been experiencing online learning and this has resulted in motivational problems. Motivation is a support for students to learn. Moreover, during the pandemic, students need to remotivate themselves. Little study has been conducted on how students remotivate themselves in studying English during the pandemic. This study was aimed at investigating the factors that remotivate students and students' strategies to remotivate themselves in learning English during the pandemic. A qualitative method was applied with a phenomenology design with participants experience during online learning. The data was collected through interviewing six students a Senior High Schools in Yogyakarta which was selected using the purposive sampling technique. This study showed five factors that remotivate students in learning English during the pandemic: friends, family, teacher, environment, and self-motivating. Meanwhile, there are nine strategies which were done by the students to remotivate themselves during the pandemic: learning vocabulary, taking private course, reading the material, watching movies in YouTube, watching English movies, asking friends, listening to English songs, collecting quotes, and setting new goals. These have benefits for both the students and the teachers in that since the findings involved the factors and the strategies, students can take the strategies to remotivate themselves and the teachers can prepare the teaching methodology and teaching materials which are relevant with the strategies.
