Online education continues to play a significant role in the information age marked by rapid technological advancement, with learning satisfaction and continuous intention to being key indicators of its success. This research utilized a questionnaire to explore how different online interaction methods affect EFL college students’ satisfaction and their willingness to continue learning English online. Findings indicate that students generally have positive experiences with online interactions in English learning, and these interactions are strongly linked to their satisfaction with online learning. The study identified four types of online interactions-teacher-student, student-student, student-content, and student-interface-each significantly predicting both satisfaction and the intention to continue learning. The study concludes with strategies to enhance online interaction based on the study’s results and learner characteristics, aiming to boost both satisfaction and the desire to continue learning.
