Abstract

The main aim of this study is to draw attention to the importance of raising awareness about the difficulties faced by English language teachers in teaching communication skills to students who suffer from ADHD from the teachers’ point of view. The study is based on data collected from 30 male and female teachers who have spent many years in education, and also by 2 specialists in psychological disorders who are involved in education. Data were collected via questionnaire and personal interviews. The results showed that the participants had mostly similar opinions about the difficulties they face, and also about the lack of awareness that affects the student’s academic performance due to this disorder. The participants believe that this category of students faces clear neglect in taking care of it and the lack of adequate awareness programs from the concerned authorities about ADHD in schools. While the opinions of the specialists from the personal interviews were also similar about the strategies that the teacher can apply in the classroom to ensure that the educational process proceeds in a safe way for all the students equally
