English is one of the international languages that all people, especially students, must master. English is not only about reading but also speaking and listening. Therefore, listening material has been received up to the senior high school level since the junior high school level. In this listening lesson, a teacher must have the right and fun strategy in conveying material to students. In this study, researchers used interviews with teachers and made observations. The results of this study show that the two teachers have different strategies for conveying listening lessons.

As a result of student work, based on the frequency of each aspect of error the highest level error found is hypothesized false concepts.
