Listening comprehension is essential in the learning process, especially for EFL students. However, the students still tend to have problems in listening comprehension that hinder their learning performance. Additionally, the students in the recent semester are studying from home with different situations and equipment than in the listening class. Furthermore, this research pointed to identify the fourth-semester students' listening comprehension problems and the factor causing them in the academic year 2020/2021.

This research used the descriptive qualitative method. The participant selected using purposive sampling. The participants are fourth-semester students consisting of six students. The researcher collected data from questionnaires and interviews. The data were about the students' problem in listening comprehension and the factor causing it. Based on the result of this study, the students had four major issues in learning to listen. The primary problem is unfamiliar words that the students encountered which slowed the students to think about the meaning of those words and missed the next part of the speech. They are also troubled with their memory because they may easily forget about the word they just listened to in the long-spoken text. The other problem is related to the rate of delivery, where the students are hard to keep up with the speaker if it is too fast. A variety of accents also troubled the students to understand the spoken text because they are not used to another accent than American. The students have these problems because their lack of practice outside the listening class makes them lack vocabulary, anxiety, and nervousness while doing the listening task, making it hard to think and lose focus. Lastly, poor-quality recording and noisy surroundings disturb their listening concentration.

Suggestion for the students, they need to practice and read more English text outside the class. As for the lecturer, it is highly recommended to make sure that every listening task is clear without any poor-quality recorder since it helps the students a lot in listening comprehension. For future studies, the present study needs to be carried out with larger participants because the sample size was too small to generalize an overall conclusion applying to all fourth semester students of the English Language Department Lambung Mangkurat University.
