While the positive aspects of digital learning tools are generally emphasized, there is less research that addresses the specific pedagogical benefits and challenges of TikTok. This study aims to fill this research gap by analyzing the effects of TikTok use on EFL learners' oral language skills. It also discusses what pedagogical strategies teachers can use to maximize the effectiveness of this integration. It seeks to examine how teachers can effectively integrate this platform into their teaching. By analyzing existing literature and considering theoretical approaches to language acquisition, a comprehensive picture of the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of TikTok in EFL lessons will be drawn.

The central research question of this paper is: How does the use of TikTok in the EFL classroom influence the development of learners' oral language skills, and what pedagogical strategies can teachers use to maximize the effectiveness of this integration?
Future teachers must not only master traditional teaching methods, but also develop the ability to integrate digital tools effectively. This paper aims to offers insights and practical recommendations that can help prospective teachers to use TikTok and similar platforms in a meaningful and effective way.
