society. Almost every activity can be done with the help of technology, including in
the education sector. Among these tools is videoconference. Videoconferencing is
one of the digital tools that is capable of creating new ways of learning. This study
aims to understand the opportunity of videoconferencing as an extracurricular
program. This research was conducted in Bina Bangsa Sejahtera High School’s
English Club students as this is where the program is conducted. The researcher
used a qualitative approach, with a qualitative descriptive method in its
methodology. This research has three instruments: Observation, a close-ended
questionnaire, and a semi-structured interview, based on six indicators: language
competency, promoting cultural exchange, critical thinking, speaking confidence,
larger idea exchange, and access to previous sessions. There were 18 students of
the English club overall who participated in the videoconferencing program. Based
on the conclusion, videoconference offered its participants the opportunity to
improve their language competency, promote cultural exchange, train critical
thinking, and provide larger idea exchange. Meanwhile, there is not much
confirmation about access to the previous sessions therefore further studies are
