This article explores innovative approaches to teaching English to preschool-aged children through the combined use of artificial intelligence (AI) and multisensory methods. The study employed observation, analysis, and practical activities to examine the effectiveness of integrating AI tools, visual materials, and interactive games. The results indicate a significant increase in children’s interest in lessons, motivation, and active participation. While AI provides a personalized learning experience, multisensory activities enhance memory and comprehension. The research demonstrates that combining AI and multisensory methods is one of the most effective strategies for teaching English at an early age.
