Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to survey the effectiveness of experiential method in EFL listening. One comparative experiment has been conducted between experimental method and the traditional way of single dimensional training. The subjects in the experimental group for the new method are 53 freshmen at Jilin Business and Technology College while the control group subjects participating in the traditional way are the 52 freshmen at the same school. After the research was carried out for one year, the post-test outcomes gathered from the two groups were analyzed using SPSS software. The result demonstrates the advantage of experiential teaching method over the traditional way of listening. These findings of the research have concluded that the experiential method might be encouraged in the future teaching.
