Abstract
Learning disabilities can be found in every class. If the students have no ability to perform correctly in a special context or if they struggle to understand what they are learning, they might have a learning disability. When a teacher or parents notice that a student has a problem in reading, writing, listening, speaking, or doing any other practices concerning learning contexts, they must search for sources of a specific disability and they must investigate those problems. This study is concerns with Learning Disabilities in Iraq and specifically at school level. It is also identified Iraqi EFL learners with learning disabilities and attempted to present solutions to prevent these causes. It also aims at observing the problems and an attempt to find their causes and sources are presented. In order to help teachers for passing the challenges of learning disabilities, the sources of these disabilities must be specified according to teachers’, educational specialists’ and parents’ observations. These observations can be used as a guide to help students passing these disabilities.
