Keywords:
multimodal learning, English teaching, digital tools, learner engagement, language acquisition, pedagogy.Abstract
This paper explores the role of multimodal learning in English language teaching, focusing on how visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and digital modes can enhance students’ engagement and comprehension. Drawing on theories of multimodality and empirical studies, the paper highlights practical classroom applications, benefits, and challenges of integrating multimodal strategies. Findings suggest that multimodal learning fosters creativity, supports diverse learning preferences, and promotes deeper understanding of language skills. The study concludes with pedagogical implications for teachers and recommendations for further research in applied linguistics.
