Keywords:
Benefits, AI tools, English language learning, Classroom contextAbstract
Innovative technological solutions, commonly known as AI tools, have undoubtedly impacted our lives and significantly influenced education. The objective of this article is to investigate the advantages of employing AI tools to improve the English language proficiency of students in the classroom. The research objectives are to investigate the ways in which AI tools improve personalized learning experiences in the English language classroom and to investigate the perspectives of students regarding the use of AI tools in the English language learning process. Third-year students participated in the research during the first semester of the 2024 academic year. The participants were chosen using random sampling. The interview was the method of data collection for this research. The research results suggest that students have positive attitudes about AI tools and that they are beneficial to the students in English in classroom learning.
