Abstract
The present study explores how digital storytelling improves listening skills in English
language. Students’ listening levels were assessed using tests from the British Council before
implementing digital storytelling. The participants of the study were (12) preparatory stage
students enrolled in Ibn Al-Nafis Language School, in the academic year 2024-2025. The study
was divided into four stages: assessing students’ listening skills, implementing digital storytelling,
using stories and activities, and evaluating progress. The purpose was to enhance the participants’
listening skills with regard to overall listening comprehension and other listening sub-skills
including summarizing, understanding the moral of the story, understanding the main ideas,
predicting what they would listen to, and understanding the details. Findings of this study showed
that digital storytelling can help language learners learn languages faster, make them integrate with
native speakers, understand the language more, and develop comprehension skills. Also, the digital
storytelling-based activities incorporated visual elements with listening, which helped students to
grasp information and made it easier to remember and retain information. Other supporting
materials such as written texts enhanced their ability to recognize details and express their
understanding.
