Sumario: Nowadays, teaching virtually has become a challenge due to the COVID 19 emergency. However, with the help of technological tools, English as aforeign language (EFL) classes can be directed towards a student-centered perspective for students to be active in the class and participate orally. Furthermore, the implementation of technological tools became highly essential in the classes. This paper aims to explain the importance of a student-centered class and Communicative Language Teaching. Also, the importance of both working together in the class with the help offered by some online resources. Also, some online tools are explained that were applied in an EFL class. Moreover, this paper concludes that teachers should continuously innovate their classes by investigating and implementing new online tools that allow them to put into practice Communicative Language Teaching in a student-centered class.
