Abstract
The research entitled "Provisions, Perspectives and Practices of Teaching Listening"
is an attempt to find out the provisions, teachers perspectives and practices that the
Basic Level teachers have in teaching listening in their classrooms. For this research, I
interviewed the English teachers. Five private and five community schools of Itahari
sub-metropolitan were purposively selected as respondents. The data was collected
from semi-structured interview questions. The data were analyzed and interpreted to
find out the various perspectives and practices.
The study found that the teachers agree on the importance of teaching
listening, however, the frequency and organization of the listening activities in the
classroom varies. They also believe that the insufficiency of time leads to less
frequent listening activities. They also face several challenges such as time, resources
and examination pressures.
