The results of data analysis show that the use of zoom in speaking class perceived negatively by the student, there are many aspects influenced such as: the use of zoom application in speaking class could not fulfill the evaluation aspects of speaking skills itself, instability of internet connection interfere in the midst of knowledge transfer, financial problem in purchasing internet package, and students lack of initiative in upgrading their speaking achievement.
