Abstract: Today's world of communication has entered an era of advanced technology. There are mounting demands on every individual, including students of all disciplines, to turn out to be techno-savvy. Therefore, besides learning general English as an international language, students need to be equipped with adequate communicative ability so that they can transmit their message clearly. Good communication skills in English can be a key as well as a contributing factor to their professional recognition and career prospect. The present paper analyses two aspects: (1) The English language learning resources available in ELT websites besides other on line techniques to enhance English language among the students; (2) The impact of internet resources on the teaching and learning of English. Internet is a vast repository of information in modern times. As to the first viewpoint, two sub points are covered: i. The significant role the web plays in contributing endless interactive English language learning resources. There are a several number of promising and updated ELT websites. ii.

The students can also enrich their English as they read more authentic articles from the internet. This apart, they have the opportunity to communicate with their foreign friends in English. They can practise a wide variety of language learning activities like quizzes on Grammar, Vocabulary, Pronunciation and LSRW skills. More importantly they can practise for language testing exams like TOEFL, IELTS, and GRE etc. For a better learning approach, these activities are categorized conveniently as Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced levels. In the second viewpoint mentioned above, the following two sub points are presented: i. The impact of the internet resources on the students in English learning. They can improve their English by comprehensively apprehending the genuine ways of communication on the net viz. Synchronous (Happening at the same time i.e., Video Conference and Chat rooms) and Asynchronous (Not occurring or existing at the same time or place i.e., e-mail). ii. The impact of the internet resources on ELT teachers. On the one hand, internet provides English teachers with abundant updated materials and teaching methods; on the other hand, it limits the role of a language teacher to being a facilitator and a guide and widens the scope of learner-centered method. However, a great deal of success comes from encouraging and preparing students to interact and learn in this online environment.
