Abstract: This article aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of Business English literacy and learning through cloud-based tools. It outlines the scholars’ approach to literacy and showcases the traditional methods for language teaching integrated in our methodology for business English literacy through visuals and mobile learning. Furthermore, we analyze the use of technology in the classroom to improve our students’ phonics, fluency, vocabulary and reading comprehension and whether it enables us to assess the level of student engagement more effectively. We conclude that videos and mobile apps influence our students’ attitude about learning in a positive way in the sense that they became motivated and selfconfident. We increased their level of engagement by becoming facilitators and transforming the learning environment into a creative and flexible classroom to keep them engaged.
