This study explores the effects of peer coaching on Moroccan EFL teachers' motivation, self-efficacy, and professional growth. Teachers' opinions and experiences with peer coaching are investigated through focus group talks. Peer coaching is considered a useful instrument for professional development, promoting reflective teaching methods and boosting teacher confidence, according to the findings. However, time constraints and inadequate training were mentioned as obstacles. We noticed that novice and experienced teachers differed in their excitement. Peer coaching can improve teacher development in Morocco and other similar educational situations, according to the study, provided that it receives institutional support.
