Visually-impaired learners use learning tools different from those for sighted learners. This may cause difficulty in mass teaching with sighted learners. For this reason, beginners have difficulty in getting opportunities to learn and, if any, constant learning opportunities are limited under the current situation. As a countermeasure for this situation, the authors practiced a class via an online call system, which turned out useful for the visually-impaired, who learn mainly via voice, even in face-to-face class. This paper reports our practice of Skype-based class for visually-impaired learners and discusses problems in class operation and views towards further utilization.
