Title: Enhancing Military Cadets’ English Proficiency through Internet-Based Interactive Methods

This paper explores how digital interactive methods can effectively support military cadets in preparing for the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) exams. Traditional language learning methods often struggle to meet the needs of cadets due to their rigid schedules and training intensity. Internet-based tools, however, offer flexible and adaptive solutions that support self-paced, skill-focused learning.

Modern digital platforms—such as language apps, video conferencing tools, and online simulations—enable cadets to practice English in ways that are practical, engaging, and aligned with CEFR standards. These tools promote active participation and personalized learning, which is especially helpful for mastering the four main language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

Speaking practice is facilitated by platforms like iTalki or Skype, allowing cadets to interact in real time with instructors or peers. Listening comprehension improves through podcasts, video lessons, and speech recognition tools. Reading skills are developed using digital texts and news articles tailored to different levels, while writing improves through tools like Grammarly and collaborative documents with peer and teacher feedback.

Studies show that these methods enhance learning outcomes. Apps like Duolingo and Babbel make learning fun with gamification, boosting vocabulary and motivation. Real-time feedback also helps cadets quickly correct errors, improving performance and confidence. Additionally, digital exam simulations allow learners to practice CEFR-format tasks, reducing test anxiety and improving time management.

Despite these advantages, challenges exist. Not all cadets have reliable internet access, and some may face difficulty managing multiple platforms. Research supports a blended approach, combining online and traditional teaching, to ensure consistency and support.

In conclusion, internet-based interactive methods offer effective, modern solutions for English language instruction in military settings. By aligning learning tools with cadets’ needs and CEFR goals, these methods prepare learners not only for exams but also for real-life communication in military and international environments.
