In an era marked by rapid digital evolution and techno-human convergence, this study adopts a posthumanist lens to reconceptualize English language education. Anchored in theoretical analysis and enriched with case scenarios from emerging technologies such as neurodevices, biochips, and augmented reality, the research interrogates how language learning transforms when learners become techno-human hybrids. Moving beyond anthropocentric pedagogies, it advocates for fluid, personalized learning ecosystems responsive to the cognitive and affective complexities of posthuman individuals. By drawing upon posthumanist philosophy, neuroscience, and AI-driven tools, the study explores how language acquisition, critical thinking, and creativity are reconfigured in technologically augmented learners. It further examines the ethical, cultural, and pedagogical implications of this transformation, highlighting the urgent need to reimagine the role of the human in learning design. The findings argue that posthumanism not only challenges traditional language education paradigms but also offers a hopeful and innovative vision, one where human and machine agency coalesce to shape adaptive, inclusive, and future-ready learning landscapes in higher education.
