With more advanced hardware and software, the new stage of education using technology called Mobile-Learning (m-Learning) has become an innovative root of language education. Regardless of this trend, there is little research that examines factors influencing an individual‘s intention to use m-Learning as the gateway for English learning. Therefore, this study proposes the research model to investigate factors impacting users' intention to use m-Learning for English learning. Based on Fred Davis's Technology Acceptance Model(TAM)(1989), the research model suggests Ubiquity, Mobility, Self-Directed Learning, and Enjoyment that affect to usefulness of m-Learning in English learning, which leads to learners' intention to use m-Learning for English learning. The survey of 212 participants reveals that all factors proposed in this study hold the hypotheses. Findings from this study suggest some implications for english education researchers and practitioners.
