This paper focuses on the use of modern technologies and the Internet in ESL learning. In the modern world of technology, language-learning processes transform into interactive activities, involving different technical tools and methods. Based on recent researches and studies in this field, implementation of media, audio, and visuals during classes improves cooperation between a teacher and students thus creating an interactive and technologically oriented cooperation atmosphere. The technologically perceptive environment in the classroom facilitates the ESL learning process thus improving and strengthening students' gained knowledge and enables their active participation during classes. Practical strategies of technology implementation, broadcasting of video during classes, representing related website addresses, and many other features of special tactics implementation in the ESL learning process are in the focus of this research paper. A special concern of this study considers the role of the Internet in the modern ESL learning process as an effective tool for information search and communication improvement during classes. Web searching tactics and strategies are of vital importance for modern ESL learners. Therefore, the development of students' creativity and imagination, facilitation of the learning process, and active engagement of both a teacher and students can be the result of effective technology implementation in the ESL learning process.
