The results of the Pearson’s Product Moment correlation test showed that the obtained correlation coefficient data r-obtained (0.403) was higher than r- table (0.329). The level of probability (p) (sig.2-tailed) was 0.013. It means that p (0.013) was lower than 0.05, there was a medium correlation between the students’ listening strategies and listening achievement. It can be interpreted that the seventh-grade students realize that their listening strategies was very important and influential in the listening process.
