Does it matter which way you say it?
I’m learning Spanish right now, and I seen someone say “Si, me escucho” and it meaning “Yes, I’m listening.”
But isn’t listening escuchando? Wouldn’t it be “Estoy escuchando” or no ?

Actually it would be "Yo escucho" I'm listening, or you can even just say "escucho". The ''yo'' is not necessary because the verb ending (o) tells you the subject and tense. That is the present tense. You can also say "Yo estoy escuchando" or again just say "Estoy escuchando" ( the word estoy (I am) tells you subject and tense). This is more equivalent to the english "I am listening." But really, they are both interchangeable, they are both saying what the person is doing in the present.

"Me escucho" means "I listen to myself." It doesn't mean "I'm listening."
