This paper examines the implementation of digital tools and applications in foreign language teaching through analysis of current literature. The research explores the evolution of digital technology in language education, its effectiveness in developing key language skills, challenges in implementation, and best practices for integration into language curricula. Findings indicate that digital tools significantly enhance language acquisition when strategically implemented, though their effectiveness depends on pedagogical approach, teacher training, and student engagement. The study concludes that a balanced integration of technology with traditional methods presents the optimal approach for modern language education.
