Teaching English for Students of Special Needs in Jordan
Abstract
This paper explores the challenges related to teaching English to students with special needs in Jordan. Despite Jordan's significant progress in policy development, the practical implementation of these policies lags, resulting in suboptimal educational outcomes for students with disabilities. The research highlights the gap between the Jordanian educational system's philosophical commitment to equality and the reality of educational provision for special needs students. Key challenges identified include limited access to specialized educational centers, insufficient teacher training, inadequate infrastructure, and negative social impacts, such as bullying. Furthermore, Addressing these challenges is essential for building an equitable education system that benefits all students, regardless of their abilities or geographical location.
