Abstract

In order to navigate many of the circumstances that arise in everyday life, one must practice active listening. People listen to audio for a variety of reasons, including amusement, learning in scholarly fields, or gathering important information. Students with a wide variety of hearing problems often show symptoms when they try to comprehend the content delivered in English. Children often find it difficult to absorb spoken information since schools place a strong focus on language, reading, and writing. Most course guides and lecturers tend to downplay the importance of listening. The challenges with auditory perception, particularly those pertaining to hearing, actively processing, and comprehending spoken information, are the main focus of this research. Teachers who are aware of the difficulties that their pupils encounter in the classroom may assist their students more successfully in order to help them improve their comprehension of spoken language and acquire excellent listening skills. This is a result of the teachers' improved ability to relate to and comprehend the emotions and experiences of their students. The significance of helping students develop efficient study habits and improve their English listening abilities is emphasized in this article review. Students who are struggling in other courses could get help from teachers who specialize in teaching English as a second language. In the conclusion, the researcher made suggestions for instructional exercises that both professors and pupils need to partake in.
