Abstract
The current study aims at investigating the effectiveness of using strategy-based instruction on the student’s listening achievement. This research applied quasi-experimental design, and the instruments were pretest and posttest. Both tests were about putting the pictures in order and form completion.  Prior to strategy choice, this study utilized Posteriori Taxonomy of Strategies of Learning English Listening Skill (Zuhairi & Hidayanti, 2014) especially focusing on the use of eight strategy categories deployed by successful students (Hidayanti & Umamah, 2018). Gaining the result from Independent t-Test analysis, it was found out that the experimental group outperformed better than their counterparts in control group. Thus, Strategy-based instruction plays important role to enhance and improve the EFL learners’ listening skill.
Highlights

This study focused on the use of strategy-based instruction in teaching listening
Eight strategies of learning listening such as socialdeveloping, cognitive, self-negotiation, metacognitive, interaction-based, self-developing, input-output, scanning and compensation strategies contributed positively to the English as a foreign language (EFL) learners ability to cope with the complexity of understanding the aural texts
Summary
The research on the learning strategies employment in listening has increasingly widespread recently. Some related studies Bozorgian, 2012; Canpolat et al, 2015; Sarafianou & Gavriilidou, 2015; Zhang, 2012 have focused on the use of the learning strategies to improve the listening skill. The terms listening is closely related to identify and focus on what and how the speaker says and the language pattern, and guess the meaning based on the context of the spoken language (Hamouda, 2013). To ease them listen and understand English as a foreign language (EFL), learners need some strategic ways. In relation to strategic ways, there are some strategies that deal with how to retain, comprehend, and repeat the idea.
