Afterwards, the experimental group was instructed using YouTube videos, meanwhile the control group was instructed using the conventional teaching method using audio recording only. At the end of the experiment that lasted for 8 weeks, a post-test was carried out in order to measure students’ level in EFL listening comprehension. Data were analyzed using independent and paired samples t-test. Results revealed that YouTube videos were effective in developing the experimental group students’ EFL listening comprehension performance. These positive results implied that the use of YouTube videos provided an authentic setting which was beneficial to EFL students in order to develop their listening comprehension performance.
