Summary/Abstract: Numerous variables contribute to the difficulty of Indonesian English Language Teaching (ELT), and a number of researchers and academics have determined that student results are insufficient. This study investigates Information and Communications Technology (ICT) as a viable option for tackling the complexities of Indonesian ELT and improving its outcomes. It studies ICT integration in English LTL in great detail, concentrating on how ICT has been used in this field. It examines the benefits and challenges of adopting ICT in language teaching and learning (LTL) in further detail. If applied in line with the principles of effective LTL, the integration of ICT has the potential to transform and improve the effectiveness of the current state of ELT in Indonesia, according to the findings of this study. The use of ICT will enable instructors to modify teaching and learning activities; to gradually change to a more studentcentered teaching style; to train students to take a more active role in learning; and to get access to a huge variety of authentic learning materials. In addition, the paper highlights the difficulties that may emerge when seeking to include ICT in the Indonesian English LTL. Consequently, suggestions for action are presented in the conclusion.
