Abstract
Nowadays, technology development enables students to learn wherever and whenever they want to. Social media have been used not only for socializing but also learning.

This present study aimed to analyze the effects of social media on English Department students’ speaking proficiency. The study used survey research to describe English Department students’ opinion and illustrate their preference on using social media.

From questionnaire results, some students are active users (posting, commenting, sharing, reacting) while others prefer being passive (only watching).
