Here I want to introduce my top 10 Technology Tools and Apps. I frequently use these Apps during my teaching. The incorporation of these Technology Tools into my teaching supports student's learning in all types of settings, face to face, fully online, and hybrid. You will find tools for creating digital portfolios, Apps which foster learning through gameplay, or Apps which let students create digital presentations featuring their oral or digital language productions. I highly recommend the use of these tools in a foreing language teacher's classroom.
