Abstract
Nowadays, special educational needs (SEN) are more common among students at every academic level. Children with SEN often face numerous learning difficulties and barriers, including foreign language learning challenges. My research aims to illustrate the practical applicability of mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) as a tool for English language learning in children with special educational needs, especially in school-aged children with central auditory processing disorder (CAPD, one of the special educational needs). I will present the results of a pilot study on a MALL tool, an application for English language learning for children with CAPD.
