This research was executed as a pre-test and post-test quasi-experiment design on a group of college students. To fulfill the objective students from Garmsar Azad University who were studying psychology and education in were selected. They participated voluntarily and their age ranged from to . The Research was executed using a test paper of English translation and a four-choice item test of the materials taught before. The content of paper was proved to be related to our research objectives (content validity). The primary aim of our research was to make students get used to listening for one week while they were sleeping. After one week, teaching material was given to them and they were asked to follow the instructions and write down a daily report of their experiences. Using independent group "t" test, the data was analyzed and it was concluded that it was not possible to learn English through listening while sleeping. Being fully aware of the research limitations, the results showed that learning does not happen while sleeping and it brings about headache, earache, impatience, and the feeling of being sleepy during the day.
