In the field of education, AI has truly impacted beyond doubt both the teaching and learning experiences. Using AI is nowadays a new trend and teachers need to be familiar with in order to improve classroom practices. Accordingly, the present paper aims to explore the benefits of using AI-Powered Writing Tools (AI-PWTs) to help teachers polish, refine and improve writing instruction. It also sheds light on the shortcomings of the over-reliance on these tools. To achieve this objective, the study involved 34 secondary school teachers of English from 12 different secondary schools in Saida. An online questionnaire was used to explore teachers' opinions about the use of AI-PWTs to improve writing task instruction.
