This study examined the comparative productivity of oral one-way and two-ways contact language approaches to boost the listening comprehension skills of EFL learners. A quasi-experimental research method was used in which a random sample of 60 Saudi EFL learners consisted two groups: control and experimental. The results of the study reveal that (1) EFL students in the experimental group scored significantly higher than control group, (2) the two-way oral strategy was more effective, and (3) there were no major gaps or statistically significant differences based on respondents' gender and language learning approaches. In addition, it is concluded that the linguistic skill of the respondents showed a significant connection to the teaching approach during language learning.
