    Annotation This article aims to demonstrate the efficacy of incorporating edutainment into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction in order to improve the listening skills of future English teachers enrolled in a language university. Edutainment technology, public lectures, and TED Talks are considered within the scope of this study. A total of 18 video lectures were chosen in alignment with the subject matter of the Keynote book. A set of exercises comprising several types of tasks (true/false, matching, filling in gaps, multiple-choice, and open-ended questions) was devised. A pedagogical experiment involving students who are aspiring English teachers at Kazan Federal University was also detailed. The novelty of the study lies in the development of a set of edutainment-based tasks intended to improve university students' listening skills through the utilization of TED Talks and public lectures. We were able to conclude that the utilization of the prescribed series of exercises inspired by TED Talks positively impacts the growth of listening abilities, based on the outcomes of the pedagogical experiment involving fifty second-year students aspiring to become English teachers at Kazan Federal University.
