Modern technology plays a pivotal role in education, particularly in the teaching of the English language in schools. This paper explores the impact of integrating innovative technologies into the English language teaching process, with a focus on effectiveness and outcomes. Utilizing both qualitative and quantitative analysis, the study assesses how digital tools such as interactive whiteboards, mobile applications, and online platforms are transforming teaching and learning methodologies. It also examines how these technologies contribute to enhancing students' language skills, including speaking, writing, reading, and listening. The paper discusses the benefits of approaches such as gamified learning, project-based learning, and collaborative learning, and analyzes their impact on student motivation and engagement. Furthermore, it evaluates potential challenges and limitations in the use of technology in language teaching. In conclusion, the article offers recommendations for optimizing the use of technology in the educational setting and discusses prospects for future research in this field.
