Summary/Abstract: Distance learning has many specifics, including the absence of direct interpersonal contact, the absence of a classic blackboard and long time spent in front of computer screens, tablets or smartphones. The author of this article is of the opinion that classical teaching in the classroom cannot be fully replaced by e-learning tools, but nevertheless such tools may be very useful at a time when classical teaching is not possible to do. The aim of this article is to create a brief but apposite overview of different types of e-learning tools and the possibilities of their use. We have divided e-learning tools into seven basic categories according to the purpose of their use, while some categories are divided into subcategories if it is needed. We believe that this classification will provide teachers with a basic overview of e-learning tools, thanks to which they will be able to inspire themselves and to enrich their teaching with this or that tool according to their specific needs and wishes.
