Abstract: The main purpose of this research is to implement a suitable strategy to work with an Autism Spectrum Disorder learner. This strategy was based on the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). The design will contribute to teachers that are constantly failing with Autism Spectrum Disorder learners inside EFL classrooms. The methodologies chosen by the authors of this research will be connected with the national curriculum, in which UDL is the main source when selecting a strategy.The methodological design used was a qualitative case study. Videos were the instruments to collect data. The participant is one student from second grade in a public school. The results show, on the one hand, the contrast related to the student's behavior in a typical EFL class and; on the other hand, two lessons applying the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). These last demonstrate that applying a strategy focused on the student's needs, helps to motivate them to participate and follow instructions in a more didactic way.
