This study aims at scrutinizing the strategies of EFL teachers in instructing listening skill in the classroom. The research data was first described in a quantitative descriptive manner using the frequency format on the results of the questionnaire which was distributed to 46 students at SMP N 3 Limboto, Gorontalo. In addition, further research data is the result of interviews with two English teachers at the school regarding listening learning strategies so far. The findings of this study revealed that the EFL teachers in SMP 3 Limboto used a variety of listening learning strategies that are quite similar to one another. They have a solid understanding of the goals that should be accomplished by students at the junior high school level while using listening resources. They draw from a variety of sources, including books and the extensive online content available now, when putting together listening materials. The model for learning through hearing should be engaging and have a variety of components, and the utilisation of various learning media should be enabled by modern technology. The method of evaluation should incorporate activities at various points throughout the learning process and make use of a rubric as an assessment tool to determine the level of listening ability possessed by the students. The results of the student questionnaire regarding the teachers strategy also confirmed the correctness of the strategy conveyed by the two teachers during the interview. These results certainly illustrate that the English teacher at SMP N 3 is quite good at teaching listening to students by paying attention to variations in strategies when learning takes place in the classroom.

The study concludes that English teachers at SMP 3 Limboto employ similar listening learning strategies and demonstrate a strong understanding of the objectives for junior high school students.They utilize diverse resources, including books and online materials, to create engaging and varied listening lessons, leveraging modern technology for effective media integration.Furthermore, the evaluation process incorporates continuous activities and rubric-based assessments to accurately measure students listening abilities, with student feedback confirming the effectiveness of the teachers strategies.

Future research should investigate the long-term impact of these strategies on students listening comprehension and overall language proficiency, potentially through longitudinal studies tracking student progress over several years. Additionally, exploring the integration of specific technological tools, such as interactive listening platforms or AI-powered feedback systems, could reveal innovative ways to enhance listening instruction and cater to diverse learning styles. Finally, a comparative study examining the effectiveness of these strategies across different school contexts and student demographics would provide valuable insights into the generalizability of the findings and inform the development of tailored listening curricula for various educational settings, contributing to a more nuanced understanding of effective EFL listening pedagogy and ultimately improving student outcomes.
