In today’s modern learning scenario, it is believed that appropriate utilization of sophisticated tools of e-learning has generally been recommended in order to yield best possible results.This reserach paper will show that the use of interactive features of e-learning increases the motivation of language learning students for the learning process. A questionnaire will be developed and administrated to potential/actual students. The main objective of the questionnaire will be to reveal the perceptions of students regarding the use of e-learning pedagogical tools in a language classroom. Next, according to the aquired information, strategies to enhance the practical application of e-learning tools in classroom-based language teaching will be provided.
