Abstract: The method for teaching mathematics to students with disabilities includes an interactive program with a synthesized speech output and voice input, the interactive program being designed with different predetermined modules for different skills (i.e., addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) and for different levels (i.e., beginner, intermediate, expert) and for different modes of learning (i.e., tutorial, testing), the interactive program describing the mechanical process for setting up the problem as if the user had no disabilities and breaking down the problem into smaller and easier problems and querying the user as to the answer to those smaller problems.
