Social media has become the most crucial online platform which functions to help connect people. People use social media for different purposes; meanwhile, pupils use social media widely in their daily routine and learning activities including writing. Hence, this study attempts to seek the use of social media to assist in writing skills among secondary school pupils. Data was collected via a questionnaire survey from 40 students in one secondary school. This study shows that respondents realized the benefit of using social media to assist writing but they did not spend much time on writing. The results of this study are hoped to identify whether social media can be one of the methods to assist in English writing skills.
