In order to explore the phenomenon before mentioned, the English teacher and the student with Asperger syndrome were taken into account as sample at Taggeschule y San Gerardo High School in Loja city. The intention of this case study was precisely to identify the strategies that the English teacher uses to teach the student with Asperger syndrome and the involvement of this student when using them. The methods used for collecting data were qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative method allowed identifying the appropriate strategies to teach the student with Asperger syndrome and the quantitative method allowed analyzing the numeric data satisfactorily. At the same way, the data collection was done satisfactorily through semi-structured interviews and observation sheets that allowed identifying the student´s involvement in the English classes.
