Learning methods and difficulties in learning foreign languages of visually impaired students at university level

Abstract

Abstract: Today, learning foreign languages is considered one of the decisive factors contributing to a person’s integration and success and is becoming increasingly popular. In fact, it appears not to be problematic for the majority of students to satisfy the foreign language requirement at the tertiary level. However, a certain number of students with learning disabilities, especially those who are suffering from dyslexia or hearing and vision impairment, are finding it extremely challenging in their learning process. This article describes the special learning methods and difficulties they encounter during the process of learning a foreign language.
