Abstract

The role of social media in English language learning is becoming increasingly significant, particularly among students in Uzbekistan. Platforms such as YouTube, Telegram, Instagram, and Facebook are frequently used to enhance various language skills, particularly listening and speaking. Social media offers a unique and flexible environment for learners to practice language skills outside of traditional classroom settings. These platforms provide access to authentic English content, where learners can engage with various accents, idioms, and real-life conversations, significantly contributing to vocabulary acquisition and comprehension.
