The study aimed to examine pre-service teachers’ views of the usage of video responses to enhance the learning of literature. The study respondents were 39 students of the B.ed Teaching of English as a Second Language (TESL) programme from Universiti Selangor. The students had enrolled in the CES1363 (Survey of Prose and Poetry) course in August 2024. The group of students were purposively selected to represent the participants of this study. The students were instructed to create an individual video response in Week 4 and reminded to submit it in Week 7. They were required to write their scripts and practise their scripts before making the videos. After submitting their videos in a specified Google Drive, the students were required to fill in a questionnaire consisting of 4 open-ended questions and 17 statements using the 5-point Likert scale. The study findings from the study indicated that the pre-service teachers were mainly positive about their experience in using video responses to enhance literature learning. Furthermore, more than 87 percent of them agreed that creating video responses was a fun and engaging way to learn literature.
