Abstract

English language proficiency has become a crucial skill in today's globalized world, as it can assist with schoolwork, foster career growth, and facilitate communication with people from various countries. However, many English learners still find learning difficult because it requires books and formal classes, thus diminishing their enthusiasm and opportunities to learn. This article explores convenient and easy ways to learn English daily without having to open a book, using mobile phones, songs, and practicing speaking in front of a mirror as part of their daily routine. This study uses a literature review method by exploring and combining various previous studies discussing informal digital English learning (IDLE), mobile-assisted language learning (MALL), motivation in learning, and developing self-confidence. Research shows that digital technology is very helpful in improving the English learning process. Activities such as changing the phone language to English, listening to English songs while reading the text, using language learning apps, interacting with English content on social media, and practicing speaking in front of a mirror can provide meaningful experiences in using the language naturally. These activities help to improve vocabulary, pronunciation, listening skills, fluency, and overall communication skills. Research also shows that students who frequently participate in digital learning activities typically have a better attitude toward English and greater communication confidence. Therefore, combining digital technology with simple daily habits can be an effective and easy way to continuously improve English skills.
