This study investigates the effectiveness of innovative pedagogical technologies
in teaching English at a higher education institution. Using an empirical research
design, the study analyzes the impact of interactive methods, multimedia integration,
and ESP-oriented instruction on students’ communicative competence and academic
performance. Data were collected through pre- and post-testing, classroom
observation, and student surveys. The results indicate significant improvement in
speaking fluency, listening comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, and learner
motivation. The findings confirm that systematic integration of innovative teaching
strategies enhances both linguistic and professional competencies in university
students.
