This research is aimed at finding out the effectiveness of digital story-telling in teaching listening at the second semester of Hamzanwadi University. This research is a quantitative research employing pre-exprimental design using one group pre-test and post-test. The sample of this study was 20 students of the second semester class 2d. The data were collected from students pre-test and post-test. The tests were multiple choice. The data were analyzed by using SPSS 22 for Windows. After submitting the data to a paired sample t-test, it was found that there was a significant difference in the mean score in the pre-test and the post-test which was t(df=17)=-30.000 at p=0.000. This means that the hypothesis proposed was proven to be accepted. Besides, the students could more easily grasp meaning especially when the story-telling was presented by video and some keywords related to the material. The activities were also more varied because the students worked more in groups.
