The teachers meet a gifted child with a learning disability, a twice-exceptional student, during his or her career. In Slovenia there has not yet been carried out a research, which would examine teachers’ perceptions about this group of twice-exceptional students. In this qualitative research we interviewed teachers who have experience in teaching twice- exceptional students. We were interested in which characteristics of twice exceptional students were most commonly described by teachers. Also we were interested in examining if the teachers descriptions focus more on student’s strengths or weaknesses. Participating teachers are able to recognize mostly emotional and social characteristics of twice exceptional students.
