Moreover, it should be used to meet the students’ need by reforming the old learning to the newest one. In doing this, social media can be used as a learning tool to apply a digital content learning, mainly in EFL teaching learning process. Since instagram has become one of the most popular social media in Indonesia, it has chosen by many English teachers as a learning media in their teaching. This paper is intended to observe students’ perception towards the use of instagram in EFL learning. The subjects are 90 XII grade students of SMAN 1 Jatiagung, South Lampung, Lampung Province. The data were gained using questionnaire. Then, it was analyzed using descriptive qualitative method. The results indicated that most students show a positive perception towards the use of instagram in their EFL learning. In doing this, students also face some obstacles in their learning process such as internet connection and internet speed. Thus, it is suggested to the teacher to also consider these facts in the future.
