The purpose of this study was to analyze the improvement of listening skills of 12th-grade students with disabilities at SLBN Bekasi Jaya through learning videos on YouTube. The subjects of this study were 5 students. The research method used was action research from Kemmis and McTaggart. The research instrument was based on the results of the post-test and pre-test scores and was supplemented by interviews with teachers. The standard test completion score given was at least 60. The results obtained showed that 3 students or 60% of students successfully passed the KKM with an average pre-test score of 58, while in the post-test results, all students successfully passed the KKM or 100% with an average post-test score of 72. This improvement was also supported by teachers through interviews with teachers who stated that the existence of YouTube learning video media made it easier for students to learn because students could repeat learning through videos anytime and anywhere. This makes it easier for students with special needs who have characteristics that tend to be slower in the learning process
