The goal of this paper is to present a range of e-learning resources and tools and give proposals, ideas, or tips for their application in designing your ESP course. With the sudden uprise of applications (apps) available that encourage teaching and learning English, I have thought of adapting my ESP courses to these online resources to arouse my students’ interests and needs. Since traditional face to face interactions are no longer possible today due to COVID-19, I have started adjusting my ESP course by using some interactive tools such as digital images, discussion boards, document sharing, electronic portfolios, social networking, and news feeds to improve my students’ language skills. The teaching and learning proposals are provided to encourage an introspective, deliberate approach to the use of each technology tool within your ESP context.
