he Listening Comprehension Skills is the most important ability at the moment of developing the other skills: Reading, Writing and Speaking. The following research had as a main objective to improve the Listening Comprehension Skills in English as a foreign language; in students of Ninth Grade at EGB “Antonio José de Sucre”, an educational institution located in Pechiche, Chanduy – Santa Elena. This research was developed qualitatively and quantitatively. In order to accomplish this goal, the researcher did a meticulous investigation about whether or not the English teachers applied a good teaching-learning tool which supports the development of Listening Comprehension Skills in the teaching-learning process. For that reason the researcher applied interviews and surveys as research tools. The researcher deducted that most of the English Teachers did not apply resources for the Listening Skills’ improvement. The researcher , with the results obtained by the research tool applied in it, decided to design an Audiobook named Santa Elena Folktales as a proposal.
