> R & D Background

Many teachers find teaching listening skills a challenge. Unlike productive skills, there are limited observable traits to identify learners' strengths and weaknesses. Learners also have little control over what and who they listen to. Worse still, some learners have the misconception that listening is equal to listening exercises whereas giving a response means waiting for the beep and marking the right answers.
