Data were collected through a structured questionnaire measuring perceptions, attitudes, and experiences with AI in language learning. and thematic analysis for qualitative data were conducted to examine the research questions. The findings reveal that English Language Education students generally hold positive perceptions toward AI integration in ELT, particularly regarding AI's potential to enhance personalized learning experiences and provide immediate feedback. Students recognized AI tools' effectiveness in improving pronunciation, grammar checking, and vocabulary acquisition. However, concerns emerged regarding AI's limitations in understanding cultural nuances, potential over-dependence on technology, and the irreplaceable value of human interaction in language learning.
