This paper examines the challenges and prospects of teaching English Language through e- learning in tertiary institutions in Nigeria. Electronic learning (e-learning) is a byproduct of information and communication technology which has affected human life since its emergence in the early 90s. Online learning and particularly online resources can catch the attention of even the most passive learner. Also, e-learning offers a favourable external environment for English Language teaching and learning. The authors discussed the need for English Language education through e-learning in Nigeria and one of the recommendations given is that computer literacy training programmes for English language teachers and adequate information technology facilities should be provided for tertiary academic institutions for effective teaching and learning of English Language through e-learning to be realizable and feasible.
