In recent years, social media has become a popular platform for people to express themselves, including through vlogs on reels Instagram. Mini vlogs, in particular, have gained popularity among young people, as they are short and easy to create. The study is expected to contribute to the existing literature on language teaching, particularly in the area of speaking skills development. The student’s motivation of SMA Negeri 2 LubukPakam Grade Eleventh in speaking English can be increased by using the mini vlog video of the reels Instagram as the media to motivate the student in speaking English.

From the findings above, it can be ignored that according to the researcher, students have problems in speaking because lack of motivation, poor of vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, fluency and nervousness.
