ABSTRACT This study was carried out to establish problems facing educational programmes for the children
with Hearing impairment in Murnias Division, Mumias district. The study revealed that problems
faced by H.I learners include understanding, signing communication language and behavior
problems. The H.I teachers cope with these problems by: learning sign language, trying to
understand signs practicing assign language and using different Medias. The findings reveal the
methods used by H.J teachers like total comrnunicatjoi~ lip reading and Kenyan sign language.
To assist, the government should built more schools for H.I. learners and equip them with enough resources to help built a better society for the H. I. learners.
