Efl teacher’s challenges and strategies in supporting students with special needs in inclusive classroom / Diyah Wahyu Lestari

Abstrak
This research focuses on identifying the challenges faced by EFL teachers in their work to assist students with special needs in an inclusive classroom setting and the ways in which these challenges are met. Foreign language learning typically requires students to actively participate in both oral and written communication. Therefore the role of EFL teachers becomes more complex especially when addressing the diverse needs of students with special needs in inclusive classrooms. The research primarily adopts a qualitative case study design. Data were collected by observing classes and interviewing two English teachers in two primary inclusive schools situated in Malang. The results showed that teachers struggled greatly in maintaining emotional stability among the students significant differences in the level of comprehension in the classroom resources that were not readily available and dividing their attention between regular students and students with special needs. To meet these challenges teachers implemented strategies of task differentiation use of visual media and technology modification of some teaching materials and a dynamic and supportive atmosphere for classes. These findings suggest that more work is needed in teacher training and school-based support services in an attempt to foster closeness between school and home for children with special needs to be inclusively placed in a lesson in an English class. Although this research provides useful insights it is limited to two inclusive primary schools in Malang. Therefore the findings should be interpreted within that context. Nonetheless the study may serve as a preliminary reference for developing inclusive education practices in similar settings in Indonesia.
