This article aims to analyze the process of teaching and learning in mathematics, given the difficulties encountered by a student with visual impairment from the methodological practices inserted by a math teacher. One student with visual impairment and a math teacher participated in the research. The research was conducted during math classes in a 6th grade B class in Manaus city with a qualitative approach. For data collection we applied as a research technique a semi-structured interview for both participants and participant observation in which we developed a script to identify essential points related to possible barriers encountered during the teaching and learning process of the teacher and blind student during the classes. mathematics. The results obtained by the research point to some situations experienced in the inclusion process, such as the educator's difficulties in teaching a blind student, besides showing some existing pedagogical barriers for a visually impaired person in math classes, besides the importance of building and using materials. accessibility courses to be applied in math classes, aimed at people with special educational needs.
