The use of technology in English Language Teaching (ELT) has revolutionized traditional pedagogical practices, offering innovative and interactive ways of learning. This paper examines the impact of modern technologies on English language education, focusing on how digital tools enhance teaching efficiency and student engagement. Data were collected from English teachers and students at the institute of agriculture and agro technologies of Karakalpakstan to analyze the attitudes, benefits, and challenges of technology integration. Findings reveal that technology significantly contributes to learner motivation, autonomy, and communicative competence while also highlighting barriers such as limited digital skills and unstable internet access.
