The advent of social network sites which were designed for language learning launched a new trend of language learning —reciprocal learning between learners and native speakers of the target language. However, little is known about young learners’ experiences as well as their attitudes toward using social network sites for language learning. This study aims to explore EFL elementary students’ learning experiences and attitudes toward the largest social network site (SNS) designed for language learning, Livemocha. Participants of this study were 40 EFL sixth-grade students recruited from an elementary school in central Taiwan. The data included the students’ action records, a questionnaire, and transcripts of the focus group interviews. Descriptive statistics and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that the students had positive experiences and attitudes toward using Livemocha for language learning, while some designs in the system needed improving. The findings have implications for language instructors and learners.
