Аннотация

Recent developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have brought significant changes to English language instruction by enabling more tailored and interactive learning experiences. This study investigates how AI-based platforms contribute to teaching English as a second language (ESL), focusing on their influence on student motivation, learning performance, and engagement. Employing both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, data were collected from 120 ESL learners via surveys and interviews. The research centers on the application of technologies such as natural language processing (NLP), intelligent tutoring systems (ITS), and voice recognition tools. Findings suggest notable progress in learners’ vocabulary, pronunciation, and reading abilities. The article discusses instructional implications and offers guidelines for incorporating AI effectively in various educational contexts. Ultimately, the study argues that AI can significantly support ESL learning if well-integrated with pedagogical strategies and educator support.
