20. Conclusion
http://sastra.um.ac.id
• It can be concluded that the use of Telegram can enhance the 10th graders students’ attendance and
achievement of SMKN 4 Malang in English in pandemic Covid-19 so the Telegram that is used by the 10th
graders teachers of SMKN 4 Malang in English in pandemic Covid-19 is very successful.
• The strengths of using Telegram are the design of Telegram makes it easier for users to send text messages,
audio, videos, images, and stickers to each other securely, Telegram is a free app (no ads nor fees), Telegram
sends messages faster because it is cloud-based, Telegram is lighter when running because it has smaller
application size, and also Telegram can be accessed from various devices concurrently such as, smartphones,
tablets, computers, laptops, and others.
• The weaknesses of using Telegram found in English class carried out by the 10th graders English teachers of
SMKN 4 Malang in pandemic Covid-19 is video call feature can be used only by two persons and no stories

21. Suggestion
http://sastra.um.ac.id
Based on the research results, the researcher hoped that the use of telegrams in E-learning as a means of
communication will not only stop in one year but can be used continuously and other schools can also apply
what has been applied there. Because with the limitations of students and teachers in implementing online
learning, telegram can make it all easier. Easy access does not require expensive fees to access it, the memory
storage is also large, and most importantly it will not be lost even if the student deletes the application.
