Summary:The widespread use of mobile devices and Web 2.0 technologies has significantly altered how ESL learners’ study and acquire languages. They offer fantastic opportunities for several social media platforms to play significant roles in influencing the state of present schooling. Teachers and students have begun using social media platforms like TikTok for teaching and learning due to social media's rising popularity. This study aims to find out how well TikTok works as a social media platform for distributing English material and to get user input on the platform's potential as a language learning tool. It was carried out by using a descriptive quantitative research design. Participants in the EngTok Launching Event were given a feedback form, which was then distributed together with a questionnaire or survey and an interview to gather data. The feedback form received responses from 21 individuals. Percentage counts and thematic coding were used to analyse the data that had been obtained. The TikTok application is an effective tool for learning English, according to the study's major conclusion. The participants responded positively to the EngTok invention overall, and many of them anticipated positive results. This EngTok invention ought to be able to aid ESL students in honing their English. Consequently, this innovation should be able to persuade ESL teachers to switch from traditional teaching methods to social media-integrated teaching and learning.
