Abstract

This research explores students' perceptions of using Instagram as a learning tool to improve their English speaking skills.  Through interviews with students, it was found that Instagram, along with other social media platforms such as YouTube and so on, plays an important role in improving speaking proficiency. Researchers used qualitative descriptive methods and involved three students. They are fourth semester English students, academic year 2024/2025. This study found that the majority of students have a positive perception of using Instagram reels in speaking skills. Students believe that this tool is comfortable and fun to develop a new atmosphere in learning to speak, it also increases their motivation because Instagram reels provide interesting content for improving their speaking skills, they can find many Instagram accounts that post more about English lessons with short duration even though students sometimes get a distract cause of random video but they already know their own goals to practice consistently every day and everywhere. Through this tool, students gain a lot of vocabulary from the video, quotes, caption, or comment section that is very helpful for them to improve their speaking performance especially when they are engaged in communication with other people both inside or outside classroom practice.
