In the digital era, social media has become a widely used tool in language learning, particularly among Generation Z learners. This research employed a quantitative descriptive design involving 35 sixth-semester students from the English Education Department at UIN Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin Banten. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire using a Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results revealed that students’ perceptions were categorized as high (M = 3.81), while their motivation was also in the high category (M = 3.70). These findings indicate that Instagram Reels is perceived as an effective and engaging medium that enhances students’ confidence and motivation in practicing speaking. Therefore, Instagram Reels can be considered a supportive digital tool for improving EFL speaking learning experiences.]]>
