A study was conducted with the purpose of demonstrating whether to suggest the use of Kahoot! as an online tool to improve the performance of the Business Management and Accounting students, IV-A-7 at Centro Regional Universitario de Veraguas, 2023, in the English proficiency test. The sample for this research where 15 students. The independent variable is the online tool Kahoot! The study aims to determine whether the tool helps seniors in the Business Administration and Accounting program to improve their performance in the English proficiency exam. The dependent variable is “the performance in the English proficiency exam. The researchers will give a pre-test to the students in the first session, which aims to determine the students’ prior knowledge. Thus, the pre-test will consist of thirty questions related to the material of study contained in preparation for the proficiency exam. After completing the intervention, the researchers will give a post-test to the students. This test will be like the pre-test. The post-test results will provide important information concerning the students’ understanding of all the topics that appeared in the pre-test. In addition, we use an interview based on a question where the students answer the reasons why they consider themselves to have failed the English proficiency test. The majority of those polled who had previously taken the test disagreed, stating that they were ignorant of the English language's grammatical structures, which they needed to learn in order to respond correctly. Every student went into the test with a distinct set of expectations, thinking that it would be simple to pass and get their degree fast, but they all came up short of what they had anticipated. The students' responses led us to the conclusion that it was necessary to incorporate a technological tool for educational purposes that would help them improve their level of English and as a final 51 result, Kahoot was chosen because it has the characteristics for the development of this type of test.
