Abstract: This research attempted to know the reality and effects of using Duolingo to develop English language skills for EFL learners in Jordan. The descriptive analytical approach was used to describe and analyze the phenomenon being investigated. Moreover, the sample included 500 first year EFL learners who were randomly selected from the Jordanian universities. They were asked to respond to the questionnaire items, by selecting the option that better describes the degree of their agreement or disagreement regarding each item of the questionnaire. The results reflected that the Jordanian EFL learners are aware of the effectiveness of Duolingo in developing their English language skills. The arithmetic means related to the effects of using Duolingo to develop English listening, reading, writing and speaking skills ranged between 3.09 and 4.01.
