Summary
English language has facilitated the widespread of the electronic network in the field of public communication. Students are weak in understanding conversations they listen to in English and are weak in written expression This led to the increase in learning disabilities in English language among students and its great impact on the future of children, their social and professional lives, and their psychological stability. It is important to avoid random judgments and intolerant trends such as the misconception of some teachers and parents that learning disabilities are linked to misunderstanding and mental retardation (Musaed, 2018) This problem triggered the researcher to investigate and identify the most important reasons behind the students' learning difficulties in English language, including those related to curriculum, teaching methods, assessment methods, school and home environment
