The integration of technology in English language education has revolutionized the ways students learn and practice their oral communication skills. This article explores how technological tools and platforms, such as language learning apps, video conferencing, and interactive language games, can significantly improve students' speaking abilities. The findings indicate that incorporating technology not only enhances engagement and motivation but also provides more opportunities for real-world language practice. This paper reviews the current literature, presents an analysis of practical applications, and proposes a methodology for using technology to improve speaking skills in English lessons
