Politeness is a societal norm and a special strategy applied by humans to facilitate and maintain the sustainability of their social relationships. The opposite condition of the concept of politeness is impoliteness. If politeness maintains the continuity of human social relations, then impoliteness can cause disturbances, misunderstandings, and damage to social relations that affect the ideal conditions of social harmony. This study aims to explain the impoliteness strategies used by MTS Ma'arif Andong students in online learning through the WhatsApp application. The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative research method. The data is the speech of students' impoliteness via WhatsApp. The data source of this research is a document in the form of a screenshot of a class WhatsApp group conversation. Data triangulation was used to test the validity of the data in this study. Data analysis is done by interpreting the data that has been collected. The results of the study found eight impolite speeches that matched the impoliteness strategy by Culpeper (2005). From the five impoliteness strategies, four impoliteness strategies were found that match the data, namely bald on record impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, and sarcasm or mock politeness.
