Abstract
The biggest challenge faced by any teacher of the English language is to find the tools that help engage the students in the classroom. Students seem to display a lack of interest and apathy when learning the language. They are often caught playing on their mobile phones during the class. The phones that distract the students can, however, be used by them as a learning tool.
