The integration of technology in language learning has become a vital component of modern education, enhancing both classroom instruction and independent learning. This study explores how technological tools influence learner motivation, engagement, and language acquisition outcomes. Despite the widespread adoption of digital tools, limited research investigates why students increasingly rely on them. Using semi-structured interviews and guided by Self-Determination Theory, this research examines the role of flexible applications, online platforms, and virtual simulations in language learning. Data triangulation provided a deeper understanding of learner experiences. Findings indicate that students benefit from increased one-on-one interaction with instructors and real-time feedback, which improves their motivation and core language skills. Simulations also heightened engagement and attention spans. Overall, the study highlights students’ shared perceptions of improved learning support and suggests practical strategies for optimizing language education through innovative technology, addressing key factors such as accessibility, learner autonomy, and technological adaptability.
