Advantages of using authentic listening 
texts at any level
D isadvantages of using authentic listening 
texts at any level
• M otivating (because it’s the real thing).
• Gives students exposure to real language 
use instead of concocted exam ples.
• There’s a much greater variety of 
authentic listening texts.
• Students respond in different w ays; 
authentic listening may bring some of 
them on very quickly.
• Dem otivating (because students can’t 
understand it).
• Speed, accent and co llo quialism may 
make it inappropriate.
• Com plex speech patterns (in regional 
variety informal conversation) may not 
be useful for students of international 
English.
• May not have repetition of language 
patterns/lexis, which m akes som e non- 
authentic material very good for study 
activities.
• Not geared or designed for a specific 
audience of language learners.
