Key words: Speaking Activity, Frequency and Unconscious Learning INTRODUCTION Indonesia as one of the countries with the most population in the world has a role in the massive use of social medi [1]. In addition, the character of Indonesian people who tend to have a high social sense, narcissistic, but not too concerned with privacy strongly represents the habits of the people to interact and communicate with each other on social media [2].

There are several names for Gen Z such as “Post millennials”, “Facebook generation”, “Digital Natives, “Switchers”, “Dotcom children”, “Netgeneration”, “iGeneration”, “C - Connection – generation”, “D - Digital – generation”, “R - Responsibility – generation”[5]. Generation Z's consumption habit differs from the former generations, even from the Millennial [6]. Various news, lifestyles, and entertainments all over the world are introduced to Indonesian on social media. With the internet connection, Indonesian generations Z can accept, post and share diverse video contents on the web with social media applications. All these enable Indonesia generations Z already have the world and its information their hands. Surely, their life and experiences significantly different from the previous young Indonesians. Most generation Z are currently in high school, students on this level of education like to open their social media for many different purposes. The students open social media for entertaining and also learn English. The students think that social media has many kinds of resources such as video, photo, caption and other. By this reason, the students use social media for learning English make the students easy to learn and has a lot of benefits [7]. Social media is an extraordinary web-based learning stage for students. Everybody's life is changing a result of the assessment of web-based entertainment [8]. Students easily get bored with reading and writing. However, social media give a lot of online information that students are likely to read [9]. Online messages, remarks, news, articles, and eBooks offer an interminable rundown to be perused, this will help students towards learning. Social media helps to improve students' academic achievement and increase their knowledge through the collection of data and information [10] The use of social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, to TikTok catered for Z generations [11]. If Facebook is more often used by the millennials, then TikTok is dominated by Generation Z. The characteristics of the TikTok application that tend to steal the attention of Generation Z is not bored with the application, because this application gives the opportunity to produce creative educational videos that contain boring learning material become attractive, so that the content has been adapted to the learning objectives to facilitate students in learning that can later help students understand learning [12]. With a good education system will be able to increase Indonesia's competitiveness through the creation of good human resources. In addition to TikTok social media, there are several social media that are no less popular among Gen z such as Instagram, Instagram users interact with their photos and other people’s photos.

Except these, students might have their own preference of the tools and access frequency for English learning. In addition, social media facilitate communication and encourage swift sharing among users. It could possibly induce students to share materials with each other via their favorite social media channels in order to complete their assignments or homework.

METHOD The research belongs to descriptive research, and it is designed to describe the current situations of the research subject. The sample of this research was XI IPS 2 students at SMAN 6 Padang consisting of 34 students. Questionnaire was used as the instrument and to determine the validity of the research, the researcher used content validity. Test reliability was found by used Alpha –Cronbach and the reliability of questionnaire was 0.94 (very high reliability) which means that the questionnaire was reliable. To collect the data, the researcher administered the questionnaire by using a google form application in 20 minutes. The researcher asked the students to respond to the questionnaire. Next, the researcher counted the raw score of each student.
