Benefits of CALL
CALL provides an interactive and engaging learning environment that encourages active participation. Learners can interact with multimedia content, such as videos, audio recordings, and interactive exercises, enhancing their understanding and retention of the language. CALL allows learners to access language learning materials anytime, anywhere, as long as they have a computer or mobile device and an internet connection. This flexibility enables learners to fit language learning into their busy schedules and learn at their own pace.

Disadvantages of CALL
CALL heavily relies on technology, and technical issues such as software glitches, network connectivity problems, or hardware malfunctions can disrupt the learning process. These issues may cause frustration and interruptions in the learning experience. One of the primary drawbacks of CALL is the reduced opportunity for face-to-face human interaction. Language learning involves not only acquiring language skills but also developing communicative abilities. CALL, especially when used in isolation, may limit opportunities for authentic human interaction, negotiation of meaning, and social and cultural exchange.

CALL allows learners to have non-sequential learning habit; they can decide on their own which skills to develop and which course to use, as well as the speed and level by their own needs.
