Summary:This research investigates the difficulties faced by first-year English majors at Phenikaa University in developing their listening skills, addressing two primary questions: what are some difficulties for first-year English majors at Phenikaa University, and what are some suggestions to improve listening skills for first-year English majors at Phenikaa University?.
