Today's advancements in social media have not only satiated people's needs for amusement and spiritual fulfillment, but video platforms like YouTube are also slowly evolving into tools for English teaching and learning, particularly in EFL classrooms. This research was conducted to examine whether the YouTube platform can be helpful for English learning and teaching, as well as students' perceptions and opinions about it. This research used the literature study in collecting the data, in which the researcher provided data support by collecting papers and essays on YouTube about the learning and teaching of English. The researcher then evaluated the data to arrive at the results. By comparing the results of students' tests taken before and after watching learning videos on YouTube, it can be said that these videos assist students in understanding English better. In addition, YouTube's variety of instructional and learning videos can help students become more engaged in learning English and draw more attention in class. Due to their ease of access to learning resources and their natural attraction to the video learning format, the majority of students felt that learning through YouTube was more efficient and effective in helping them enhance their proficiency in English. Thus, it is feasible to draw the conclusion that YouTube facilitates both the teaching of English to EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners and their learning of it based on the outcomes of this research.
