Enhancing Listening Comprehension through Oral Paraphrasing with Podcasts

Abstract:

This research will be carried out at a private school with B1 level students from ninth grade in Guayaquil, Guayas, Ecuador. These students were selected after taking a survey about certain characteristics regarding their listening skills, in which the researcher found that they have some difficulties that prevent them from mastering listening comprehension of main ideas from audios. This proposal aims to prove that oral paraphrasing with the use of podcasts will be a feasible strategy to apply in the classroom and to improve any kind of deficiencies in the students’ listening comprehension. Also, this proposal will benefit the teacher’s management of strategies to work in the listening classes and will be of great help to students in the acquisition of the English language. This will be possible by oral paraphrasing facilitated by podcast that will give the students more ways to work the listening comprehension of the audios.
