The rapid development of globalization, digital technologies, and international communication has significantly increased the importance of English language proficiency in modern society. Consequently, traditional language teaching methods are no longer sufficient to meet the educational needs of contemporary learners. This article examines innovative approaches to teaching English through creative learning methods and analyzes their effectiveness in enhancing students’ communicative competence, critical thinking, creativity, and motivation. Particular attention is given to project-based learning, problem-based learning, gamification, digital technologies, collaborative learning, and creative classroom practices. The study concludes that creative learning methods contribute to the development of student-centered educational environments and improve language acquisition outcomes.
