Abstract

This research aims to find problems faced by five EFL students in implementing TikTok as a speaking learning medium. This study used a qualitative methodology, including data collection techniques such as observation and questionnaires, and data analysis procedures such as data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing/verification from Miles and Huberman (1994), with the researchers serving as the primary instrument and the students serving as the primary informants. The findings of the study indicated that the students confront several challenges when using TikTok as a spoken learning medium. Their challenges are the inability to concentrate due to the distractions from other videos, insufficient teacher’s written explanation, and a lack of interaction with others. As a result, a teacher should combine this medium with other media to improve the teaching and learning process. The results of this study have pedagogical significance in the area of implementing social media in speaking instruction.
