The current digital revolution and boom in the use of smartphones have triggered off a consistent change in our educational needs and necessities. The way we access information, consume, discuss and share content has evolved in such a way that makes the traditional landscape of classroom didactic processes obsolete and outdated. E-learning has become a “must” in the educational environment, being able to focus on the learners’ needs and wants offering effectiveness, efficiency, and easiness in providing information. However there are also drawbacks to be taken into account especially if we have in mind the process of learning and getting practice in the use of a foreign language (English in this specific case). Consequently, this paper attempts to register both the positive and negative aspects of learning a foreign language through the means of e-learning platforms in order to improve teaching methods and techniques and meet the expectations and requirements of the present day digital society that we are all inhabiting.
