THE IMPACT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ON MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING

Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive examination of the transformational potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in foreign language instruction. In the modern educational system, AI technologies serve not only as tools for automating tasks but also as important means for developing students’ individual abilities, increasing motivation, and making the learning process more efficient and adaptive. The article analyzes the use of AI platforms, adaptive learning systems, intelligent tutoring programs, automated lesson-planning tools, and interactive language applications in foreign language teaching. AI technologies offer learners personalized learning trajectories, enabling the development of grammar, vocabulary, listening, and speaking skills. In addition, virtual tutors and conversational agents play a significant role in enhancing language skills through interactive and practical activities. The article also discusses how AI supports teachers in the educational process by ensuring equal access to resources and providing adapted materials for learners of various proficiency levels. The studies discussed show that AI makes foreign language learning engaging, effective, and interactive, increases students’ interest in languages, and supports autonomous learning. Moreover, AI provides equal access to quality education for learners in remote or resource-limited regions, thus improving the accessibility of language education. The article demonstrates that AI, complementing traditional pedagogical methods, contributes to improving instructional quality, offering personalized approaches, and effectively teaching linguistic skills and cultural values.
