Abstract
Every year, huge sums of money are spent on teaching English in Iran's educational system, but unfortunately, the results that should be achieved in learning are not very favorable. In most schools, language teaching begins with writing the English alphabet and reading from the book. While, according to the recommendation of linguists, learning a second language is accompanied by the simultaneous learning of the four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing, which if the order and all aspects are not taken into account, learning will not take place. What are the new English language teaching systems such as Headways' Stream line that are taught in schools? Stream line and Headways books are written based on the active participation of language learners and can be taught in private and semi-private classes, while in our schools the number of people present in a class is beyond the standard. In some areas, we see that a school accepts students in two shifts. Listening skill is considered one of the most stressful parts of various tests and most people are always worried that they will not understand the other person's meaning and they will not be able to give a suitable answer. On the other hand, different accents and the way and speed of people's speech make the work even more difficult. Students always request the professor to share methods with the students that they can use to strengthen their listening skills.
