Abstract
This paper aims to highlight recommended lessons for teachers to use social media platforms in the English classrooms. It provides lesson plans for teachers as guidelines to integrate social media platforms in the 21st century classroom, particularly in schools. Generally, there are generation gaps between educators and students in the 21st century classroom. In narrowing the generation gap, this paper provides tips on the characteristics of teachers best suited to teach the 21st century students. Innovative technologies are presented as tools especially on social media platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram which could be used by English teachers to support language learning process. As these apps are easily available to be downloaded in smart devices, integrating them into classroom lessons is recommended for implementations by the English educators.
