- Description
The present research focused on analyzing Storytelling to improve students' listening comprehension. This research used a methodology that starts from a descriptive qualitative approach through the collection, organization, and description of data that allowed us to know different experiences and opinions of the students about the narrative resources to teach English to develop the listening skills of adults. Likewise, the interview technique was applied since it facilitates data collection. As for the sample in this research work, a total of ten students were selected from the Peninsula State University of Santa Elena from the civil engineering career in their second semester who had the opportunity to receive the Storytelling resource in their first English module in addition, a total of ten open questions were asked to each one of them so that in this way a more profound analysis could be made, collecting each one of their opinions. The results of this study confirmed that the students could understand the auditory narration with basic vocabulary and provide correct answers. Although the students' English level in the first unit was lower, their listening comprehension improved. Storytelling is interpreted to have advantages that reinforce each student's retention of information, and the repetition of these stories improves pronunciation when listening attentively. Also shows that storytelling to improve listening skills in adults with a basic level of English has greater acceptance.
