Sumario: This research was carried out at Miguel de Cervantes High School of 10th grade students in the morning shift during the second semester of the year 2016. During some observations, it was analyzed that there are certain weaknesses that learners present. One of the most essential is in the listening skill in which the teacher strategies and the didactic materials that she applies are not effective for the learning process. To support what was identified it was necessary to apply surveys to twenty (20) students and the English teacher. In the surveys were asked several questions regarding to the strategies that the instructor employs and didactic materials that she uses during listening lessons. Through the learner’ responses it is confirmed that students present a poor listening understanding due to the inappropriate strategies and the lack of didactic materials, these factors make the learner face difficulties at the moment of listening a track; as a result, the learners feel overwhelmed, bored, lost, confused and they do not succeed in this skill. Therefore, this also affects the teaching process; the instructor might not achieve her objectives. Teacher must find the most suitable strategies for learners and make use of the available didactic materials in order to create a successful learning process. Therefore, it is recommended that the educator applies some techniques such as: songs and videos because they are entertaining, students prefer them and of course they will learn and will improve their listening skill. In order that the instructor applies these techniques she needs to take learners more often to the technology classrooms. The correct format when teaching a listening lesson, during the prelistening stage for instance, in which the teacher must look for the unknown vocabulary that appears in the track and teach that vocabulary to learners; as a result, students will find the track a little bit easier, also it is vital that the educator teaches first the grammar tense that is going to be listened in the track. If these recommendations are taken into account, the teaching- learning process will improve.
