Therefore, teachers must be flexible in using listening strategies.

Because strategy is innate to each individual, strategies do not need to be taught.
Based on the above problems, it can be concluded that all of these problems are very important for improving English listening comprehension.

Interview Result From the results of the interview above, the writer concluded that there are several problems that influence students in learning English listening, among others:
Selection of teaching methods, teaching methods using games and song as learning media are considered quite effective in increasing students' interest in practicing The surrounding environment such as family, friends and neighbors also influence them to motivate them to practice listening English.
The use of daily language is also one of the problems that hinder students in practicing listening English because they are used to using daily language Indonesian when communicating.
The lack of mastery of English vocabulary makes them confused when invited to interact or communicate using English.
Understanding of English word order, the use of formulas in English that are considered difficult, reduces their motivation in learning English, so their listening skill is rarely Low motivation to learn, due to lack of motivation to learn, they rarely learn English which causes their listening skill to be lacking.
From the data obtained, the writer found several problems that affect students' interest in learning comprehension to listening English, these problems include:
Listening for Teaching methods.
In general, students of grade X ULP 2 SMK N 4 Bandar Lampung have problems understanding expressions or conversations spoken by researchers during wawancafra.
This happens because they often confuse pronunciation in the first language with the second Listening for Surrounding environment.
Many students feel unconcentrated when listening to words or sentences spoken by Of all the speakers in this study, on average they mentioned that concentration in learning Listening Comprehension is very important because the subject of Listening is all related to human listening devices.
If from the beginning the student is not concentrated on the material he will listen to, then the student will have difficulty in understanding the material he will discuss.
Listening for Use of daily language Inference happens in the middle of listening task design for some other purpose, which is the listener does not know the indirect speech from to speakers, so the listener needs to infer the Listening for Lack of mastery of English vocabulary.
Most students of grade X ULP 2 SMK N 4 Bandar Lampung also face problems with the limited meaning of "new English vocabulary" in learning Listening Comprehension.
this case, it seems that students must understand every meaning of the word spoken by the native speaker.
Students assume that everything the native speaker says contains important Though attempts to understand everything often result in ineffective understanding and confusion.
Listening for Understanding of English word Students of grade X ULP 2 SMK N 4 Bandar Lampung have problems understanding what vocabulary they listen to or conversations spoken by researchers during interviews.
This happens because their vocabulary understanding is lacking.
Low motivation to learn Fatigue, laziness, and no interest in learning Listening Comprehension are also obstacles for a small number of grade X ULP 2 students of SMK N 4 Bandar Lampung.
Learning is said to be successful if it departs from ourselves.
Therefore, if someone is no longer excited about the material he will learn, then the learning results will not be optimal.
The same happened to grade X ULP 2 students of SMK N 4 Bandar Lampung in learning Listening Comprehension.
They consider this Listening Comprehension material less interesting in the learning process.

The conclusion of this study is that students still experienced refer to the evaluation through a problem when their students have to answer wh- questions in listening task their students have a difficulty to concentration to the task when their think of another question to answer and the students are unable to concentrate when they do the tasks because they search for the answer, while their students listen to the text dialogue at the same time.
