Modernizing foreign language (FL), particularly English, instruction in universities is fundamentally linked to the integration of innovative technologies, a necessity driven by the significant impact these technologies have on student learning outcomes. In the realm of higher education, these technologies are not merely supplementary but rather essential tools for enriching the student learning experience, especially within the context of FL education [2, p. 82]. This article delves into the potential applications of these innovative technologies in the specific context of teaching English as a FL to university students. It draws upon a variety of perspectives and research findings, aiming to identify strategies that can effectively improve learners’ communicative competence [3, p. 11].
