Abstract

The purpose of this research was to increase the students listening comprehension at Eighth grade students of SMPN 4 Sekampung, East Lampung. In this research, the researchers conducted classroom action research (PTK) by means of online classes using the WhatsApp group because it was still in the covid-19 pandemic period which was carried out in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, acting, observing and reflecting. The subjects of this study were 30 grades VIII A students of SMPN 4 Sekampung, East Lampung. In collecting data, researchers used tests (pre-test, post-test I and post-test 2), observation and documentation. This research was conducted collaboratively with an English teacher of grade VIII at SMPN 4 Sekampung, East Lampung. The results of this research indicate that Finding Idioms in English Acoustic Songs can increase the listening skills of class VIII students of SMPN 4 Sekampung, East Lampung. This can be proven by the students' average scores ranging from pre-test to post-test. The mean score in the pre-test was 50, in the post-test I was 59, and it was 75 in the post-test II. This means that the use of English acoustic songs can increase students' listening skills.
