With the development of technology, many universities use e-learning to assist in teaching activities or integrate e-learning into face-to-face teaching/learning. Therefore, this study investigated the teachers and students of the Mandarin Study Program of Bunda Mulia University, especially how teachers and students used Quizlet and their views on the use of Quizlet as a teaching and learning tool. Through the questionnaire survey and interviews of the three teachers and 103 secondary and third grades students, we know that teachers generally use Quizlet to teach in comprehensive classes and conversation classes. Teachers will ask students to complete the study set created by teachers, and they will also pay attention to the completion of the study set done by students. From the perspective of students, students think that Quizlet is easy to use and very useful; students' favorite study fitur on Quizlet are test, learn, and flashcard; students are more willing to use Quizlet in the classroom than out of class; students believe that their vocabulary has improved after using Quizlet, they can memorize vocabulary faster, and the student test results have also improved.
