This study explores the attitudes of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students
toward learning English through video. The aim is to gain a deeper understanding
of students' perceptions, feelings, and responses when engaging with video
materials in English learning contexts. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the
researcher collected data through semi-structured interviews with two EFL
students. The findings reveal that students generally hold positive attitudes toward
video. They reported feeling more confident, interested, and supported in
understanding the material through videos. Video was seen as helpful in improving
pronunciation, vocabulary acquisition, and comprehension due to its visual and
auditory elements. However, students also mentioned challenges, such as unstable
internet connections and the lack of direct interaction with teachers, which
sometimes hindered their learning experience. Overall, the study highlights that
while video can enhance student motivation and engagement, its effectiveness
depends on technical support and the integration of interactive guidance from
teachers.
