In the context of teaching English as a foreign language in Kazakhstan, there are several problems that students come across: lack of language environment; lack of motivation and interest; age-related features in groups, language barrier; lack of practice, interference. This paper reports on an investigation of information and communication technologies (ICT) and one of their types digital education resources (DER) in classroom language teaching. In 2014 adapted DER for teaching school subjects were developed by Kazakhstani pedagogies. ICT and DER are strongly advocated in recent Kazakhstani and European methodological literature.  We take into consideration the possibilities of experiment conduction where DER are used in teaching English speaking in combination with active case-study method. The advantages of case-study method are considered in European studies. It promotes the process of language interaction and solving case problems individually and in sub-groups. The students with first native Kazakh and Russian languages from secondary schools in Astana took part in an experimental teaching.  The investigation was multi-methodological combining classroom teaching experience, cases for students’ oral language practice, focus groups and questionnaires. Analyses revealed effectiveness of suggested approach in teaching English as foreign language with the combinative usage of case-study method and DER.
