    This monograph proposes to teach the English language using the Total Physical Response (TPR) method as a tool to enhance the listening comprehension skill of Tenth Graders at Unidad Educativa Latinoamericano. The study analyzes the cognitive procedure in the listening ability in order to know in which way the input is processed in the mind of the listener. As well, it reviews factors that make listening comprehension more efficient in young learners. It also studies bibliographic information about common behaviors that most adolescents show during this stage, which is supported by the application of qualitative and quantitative techniques carried out in this research. Additionally, it evaluates the features, advantages, operation of the TPR method, allowing both authors of this study to determine that this method would help teenage students improve their listening comprehension, increase their self-confidence and motivation in class. Finally, this study proposes several TPR lessons in order to suggest teachers how these could be implemented in class with teenage students.
