Abstract

Listening is the basic part in determining students' success in communication, but in reality the position of listening skill is neglected by some other institution. This makes the students cannot develop their listening skill effectively as the receptive skill which has a crucial part in language learning. The aims of this study were to investigate the perception, problems and strategies that have been faced by university students in listening skill. In this study, 40 students were selected. Data were gathered by means of questionnaires and interviews. The result of this research found that listening material, psychological characteristic, physical setting, listener, and speaker are the problems that the students' face. The implications of this research for teaching and learning are the lecturer may get new knowledge and ways of teaching to face the student's problem, and the students may find new strategies to solve their problem to conduct an effective listening.
