This article discusses the ways in which teachers can improve pupils' listening
skills in English lessons. Listening skills are an integral component of language
learning, and developing pupils' listening skills is essential for effective
communication in the target language.
This article emphasizes the importance of using a variety of materials and
methods to promote pupils' listening skills, including the use of authentic materials,
interactive activities, and guided listening. Authentic materials such as music, videos,
and podcasts expose pupils to a range of accents and contexts, making listening practice
more engaging and meaningful. Interactive activities such as quizzes, games, and role-
plays provide pupils with opportunities to practice listening skills in a dynamic and
interactive way while developing communication skills.
