The worldwide relevance of English and the expanding use of technology in education are highlighted. The project aims to establish how technology influences language acquisition, discover technology-based language learning systems, and overcome shortcomings. Technology's engaging learning, customized instruction, genuine language resources, and increased communication skills have changed language teaching. Digital resources, language learning applications, VR, and internet platforms have extended instructors' pedagogical tools. Abstractly, this transformation's challenges are described. Equal resource access, internet trustworthiness, and instructor flexibility and adaption are major issues. Technology and English language instruction are linked, therefore teachers must mix conventional and cutting-edge techniques. Technology and English language instruction are linked in this scholarly article. This paper discusses the significant effects, potential advantages, and limitations of this mutually beneficial partnership. Technology's impact on education must be considered to enhance language training in the digital era.
