A questionnaire was also administered to the students to gather data about their teachers ' teaching practices. Observation was one of the main instruments to collect data about practices of teaching listening. For the sake of crosschecking if there is a match or not between what the teachers have mentioned in the . questionnaire and what they actually did in the classroom and for detailed information; an observation was used Finally, in order to complement the data ji-om the questionnaire, and to get in-depth information about the problems related to teaching listening, a semistructured type of interview was used. A mixed research approach was employed in the study in order to collect and analyse the data. The data through the interview was analysed qualitatively whereas the data through questionnaire and observation were analysed quantitatively. Results of the study showed that the teachers' practices of teaching listening were as most literatures suggest it should be. They were seen applying the three stages with different activities.
