motivative versus proactive
If someone works with little supervision / instructions, can I describe "He / She is motivative / proactive.", or " He / She is a motivative / proactive person", or " He / She works proactively"? Or any other expressions?
What is the difference between motivative and proactive?
Looking forward to your comments.

You could say “he is a motivated person.” Proactive simply means that you are taking an action before an expected event or outcome. If I understand correctly, you are talking about someone who studies on their own without prompt. I would not use proactive. An example of the use of “proactive “ would be: “The city is taking proactive measures against crime.” Or “Emergency training is a proactive step taken for security measures.” You could also say they are “a go-getter”

Hello Phil. Actually I just want to describe a personality where someone works with little supervision / instructions, and he / she can proactively work. In this case, which word is proper?

Do you mean "motivated" or "motivating"?
