    You should maintain full respect and etiquette at the time of listening to the holy Quran and listen to it with concentration. There is no harm in it, but it should not be for entertainment. Only by listening to the Qirah, one cannot improve himself rather it is improved by studying before any teacher and by practicing before any good Qari. Hence, you should learn correct pronunciation and makharij (outlet of letter sound) from any scholar, it is enough and if he is Qari, you should practice Qirah before him.
