Findings show that teachers have a strong knowledge of integrating mobile applications. They mix traditional methods with mobile tools and keep themselves updated with the latest technological enhancements. However, teachers still need professional development in monitoring students' progress. This research highlights the potential of teachers' knowledge of mobile applications to develop students' listening skills. It is suggested that teachers get training to maximize the utilization of mobile applications. The limitation of the study is the dependency on a single data source, reinforcing future research by incorporating a variety of data to get a more comprehensive analysis
