This study examines the effects of students’ perception of digital learning media and self-esteem on writing skills. A quantitative survey was conducted with 88 eighth-grade students from two public junior high schools in Tangerang Regency, selected using proportional random sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires on perception of digital learning media, self-esteem, and a descriptive writing test, then analyzed using multiple linear regression. Results indicate that perception of digital learning media and self-esteem jointly have a significant effect on writing skills (Sig = 0.001; F = 17.549). Individually, perception of digital learning media (Sig = 0.002; t = 3.208) and self-esteem (Sig = 0.002; t = 3.145) also show significant effects. The findings suggest that both factors play a crucial role in improving students’ writing skills.
