    Learning English is necessary for the development of productive and receptive skills in students with hearing disabilities. To teach English, resources such as books can help teachers with inclusive activities develop their language skills and ensure their active participation in the classroom. This research project aims to design a Handbook for teaching English to students with hearing impairments. The methodology used was qualitative with a non-experimental descriptive level, and thematic analysis was employed to analyze the information. The instrument used was an interview guide, and the technique employed was an interview. An interview was conducted with a student with hearing impairment from the Technical University of Cotopaxi, enrolled in the sixth semester of the Basic Education program. The results of this research highlighted the need to create didactic material for teaching the English language to Deaf students taking into account graphics, visual aids, practical activities and deductive grammar explanations. This can develop vocabulary and writing skills. Therefore, the design of an annual Handbook for teaching English to Deaf students was carried out, being a material with specific activities carefully selected for the development of the teaching and learning process that can be taken into account by teachers when making curricular adaptations. In conclusion, the use of the manual for teaching English to Deaf students can facilitate the student's educational process.
