This is why it is important to know what social media are useful in the teaching and learning of the English language and how these social media affect both the teachers and the learners’ performance in the educational setting. This study is conducted exploring various articles on the impacts of social media in the English language teaching and learning. The paper applied the method of a systematic review of literature exploring 75 articles from peer reviewed journals and published studies that are available in the research site like Google scholar. The surveyed articles underwent thematic analysis investigating the problems or objectives, methodologies and designs, salient findings, conclusions and recommendations of the selected articles. This systematic review of related literature has identified the positive and negative impacts of social media on the English language teaching and learning. From the obtained result of the review, the researcher proposed important areas or topics to be considered for future studies to further enhance and widen the knowledge about the relevance of social media in the English language education.
