Abstract: The teaching of listening skills in language learning has undergone significant transformation with the integration of technology. In the digital age, learners have access to a wealth of resources and tools that can enhance their listening comprehension, provide real-time feedback, and promote active engagement with audio-visual content. This article explores various technological tools and methods that can be used to teach listening, with a focus on online platforms, mobile apps, and artificial intelligence (AI). Additionally, it examines the challenges and opportunities that technology brings to language education, offering practical suggestions for educators to integrate these tools into their curriculum. By leveraging technology, educators can create more personalized, dynamic, and effective listening practice environments, enhancing learners' listening skills in diverse and engaging ways.
