Introduction: The quest for effective education for hard of hearing (HOH) and deaf undergraduate students has led to a focus on improving their language learning capabilities. This study explores the impact of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) on enhancing English language skills and confidence among students with learning difficulties. By addressing the specific needs of these students, the study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of NLP-based teaching strategies compared to conventional methods.
Methods: A quasi-experimental research design was utilized, involving two experimental groups: one receiving NLP-based education and the other following traditional language learning methods. Both groups were assessed using pre-test and post-test scores to measure language competency and confidence levels.
Results: The results demonstrated a significant increase in language competency and confidence among students in the NLP-based education group. The experimental group showed marked improvement in English language skills and confidence, validating the efficacy of NLP teaching strategies.
Conclusion: This study concludes that NLP-based teaching methods significantly enhance language skills and confidence in HOH and deaf undergraduate students. Future research should explore further applications of NLP in educational settings to support students with learning difficulties
