The findings of the analysis revealed positive perceptions of the use Flipgrid platform. Participants explained that the platform can foster engagement, increase confidence, and enhance speaking practice outside the classroom. The findings further showed that the platform increased the participants’ motivation, and collaborative learning skills, and reduced their speaking anxiety. Finally, the study makes some recommendations for practice and further studies.
