Abstract

The English language learning field nowadays finds itself growing with the emerging new technologies, however it is such a wide field that small parts of it need more attention depending on who is learning the language and its context. To make a contribution to this field this research found some aspects to reinforce in children who are learning English as a foreign language, they presented a need to rehearse their listening skill making their learning more difficult to carry on. As a way to solve the situation this research decided to implement a technological strategy to get seventh-graders to rehearse their listening skills and subs kills looking for the contributions of a virtual learning platform to the listening rehearsal.
