4. Ⅰ. Introduction
Listening is a basic skill in language acquisition and is
crucial in English as Second/Foreign Language (ESL/EFL)
learning.
The process with listening strategies and teaching listening
skills on the teachers, has been overlooked through a strong
emphasis on post hoc assessment of the products of
listening.

5. Purpose
The purpose of this study is researching the
effectiveness of teaching listening strategies in
developing and improving the listening skills of
Iranian EFL students.

6. Ⅱ. Literature review
Listening strategy instruction
Learning contribution of
L1 to L2 6
7. Vandergrift (1992) states that listeners use different
listening strategies in response to the nature and
demands of the auditory input 7
8. Macaro (2009) proposed a theoretical framework. He
argues that predicting, processing and storing
knowledge are dovetailed with the cognitive theory
used in L1 and L2 language learning through
8
interaction in both short and long term memory.
9. Research question
Does listening strategy instruction in Persian for 14
sessions improve students’ EFL listening
comprehension in an Iranian classroom?

16. Procedure
Focus on the structure of
listening comprehension to
predict the topic
Control Teacher ask student to
group write down the long phrases
Pair/group in some post-
listening activities

17. Procedure
Received additional guided
listening strategy instruction
Experi
20-25 minutes
mental
Regular listening
group comprehension
Received 14 sessions along
with the normal conversation

18. Result
Table 3 : Overall descriptive and t-value
Control Experimental
Mean 18.73 22.96
SD 3.97 3.17
t-value 10.083
N 30
P=.000
The experimental class benefited from the
listening strategy instruction as t(29) = 10.083

19. Guessing and making inference ( 11 Question)
Control Experimental
Mean 8.16 10.10
SD .83 1.26
t-value 9.032
P=.000
Students receiving guided guessing and making
inferences strategies in Persian performed better in
EFL listening than did the control group. 19

Repetition ( Questions )
Control Experimental
Mean 7.70 8.13
SD .91 .93
t-value 1.941
P=.062
Table 5 indicated that higher performance of the
experimental class was statistically insignificant .

21. Identifying topic ( 2 Questions )
Table 6 indicates that the experimental class
achieved better results than did the control class.

22. Ⅳ. Result & conclusion
This study suggest that L1 listening strategy
instruction such as guessing, making inferences,
identifying topics, repetition and note-taking can
improve students' listening comprehension of
information better in an EFL context than just
adopting the traditional approach.

23. Ⅴ. Limitation
The limitation is that there is potential researcher
(instructor) bias.
Participants didn’t including males, the result just
stand for females in Iran.
