This problem is one of the reasons for research which aims to examine the role of teachers and parents in overcoming the difficulties of learning mathematics in slow learner children during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research used is qualitative with the research design used is descriptive qualitative. There were 3 research subjects used by researchers, namely one mathematics teacher, one parent of a child with special needs and one school principal. Using online interviews and observation methods to collect data. The data analysis technique used is data simplification, data presentation and conclusion. The results of this study indicate that the teacher's role is that there is special treatment in class, the teacher always monitors the assignments of slow learner children and there is a mathematics learning video sent by the teacher via WhatsApp. The role of parents is as educators for their children, parents as protectors of children, parents' priority children, and parents know the child's condition when at home. The role of the principal is to guide the teacher in the learning process, through the evaluation process for the teacher.
