<![CDATA[This research aims to diagnose the difficulties learning mathematics reviewed from the numerical ability of extraordinary junior high school Karya Murni Manggarai students. This research was qualitative research and the sampling technique used was purposive sampling, so the subjects were 4 of students. Data were collected using test and interview. The test was used to identify the types of learning difficulties in mathematics and interview was used to know factors that cause difficulties to learn mathematics. Data were analyzed by using descriptive data analysis techniques with stages : reducing data, presentation of data, conclusion, and verification. The results of this research indicate that students are still having difficulties regarding mathematics calculations, connecting concepts in accordance with existing situation, and solve the problems. These difficulties are caused by weak memory, the material being taught is not related to the student’s daily life, and the lack of procedural, conceptual, and factual abilities. Therefore, it is necessary to find a strategy that can reduce student’s difficulties learning mathematics students and can improve student’s numerical ability.]]>
