Résumé:
The present study has been conducted to investigate the perceptions about the effectiveness
of YouTube videos to enhance EFL learners listening skill. To achieve the objective of this
research, a descriptive study was adopted. Two questionnaires were submitted to thirteen (13)
teachers and fifty-nine (59) third year students at Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia University.
After analysing the obtained data, the significant findings revealed that both teachers and
learners hold a positive attitude towards implementing technological tools in the classroom as
a teaching technique to enhance students’ listening skill. The majority of them perceived that
Authentic materials reflect the real use of the English language. Furthermore, the use of
YouTube videos encourages students to work on reducing anxiety and sustaining their
motivation. On accounts of these findings, a number of pedagogical implications are given to
teachers and students in addition to some limitations of the study
