WHY ESP?
Development of ELT
▪ How to teach What to teach
Criticism to the form of teaching available
▪ Much time and effort spent to learn material not learner’s primary concern.
▪ The learner is not given materials suitable for his primary concern (gaps of knowledge).
▪ Teachers’ attitudes to other subject matter.

Hutchinson & Waters (1993)

Streven (1988)He defines ESP by identifying absolute and variables characteristics. Absolute characteristics (Working definition of ESP):
▪ Designed to meet learner’s specified needs of the learner;▪ Related in content (i.e. in its theme and topics) to particular disciplines,
occupation, and activities;▪ Centered on language appropriate to those activities.▪ In contrast with “General English”.
Variable characteristics. ESP may be, but not necessarily:▪ Restricted as to the language skills to be learnt (e.g. speaking only, etc.)▪ Not taught according to any pre-ordained methodology (i.e. ESP is not
restricted to any particular methodology).

Claims made by ESP:
ESP, being focused on learner’s needs, wastes no time;
ESP is perceived as relevant by the learner;
ESP is successful in imparting learning;
ESP is more cost-effective than General English.

Dudley-Evans & St. John (1998) Absolute characteristics
▪ ESP is defined to meet specific needs of the learner;
▪ ESP makes use of the underlying methodology and activities of the discipline it serve;
▪ ESP is centered on the language ( grammar, lexis, register), skills, discourse and genre appropriate to these activities.

Variable characteristics▪ ESP may be related to or designed for specific disciplines;
▪ ESP may use, in specific teaching situations, a different methodology from that of English;
▪ ESP is likely designed for adult learners, either at tertiary level institution or in a professional work situation; However, it could be for learners at secondary school level;
▪ ESP generally designed for intermediate or advanced level;
▪ Most ESP courses assume some basic knowledge of the language system

▪ Carter (1983) identifies three types of ESP:
▪English as restricted language (e.g. language use by air traffic controller)
▪English for Academic and Occupational Purposes
▪English with specific topics.

PHENOMENA FOR THE EMERGENCE OF ESP
The Demand of a Brave New World
Expansion in technology and commerce that needs an international language.
A Revolution in Linguistics
Shift attention from formal features to real communication.

STRUCTURAL APPROACH
focus on forms and structure
teacher directed
work on sentence levels
COMMUNICATIVE APPROACH
focus on meaning *)
learner-centered
work with larger unit of discourse

*) Meanings are related to context of situations: Linguistic and extra-linguistic aspects.
Sociolinguistic situation (i.e. who, to whom, for what purpose, at what time, in what setting, on what occasion the language is used).

KNOWING A LANGUAGE?
Knowing a sufficient amount of the element of the language AND knowing how to use the elements for communication (use it in accordance with needs and context).
How does definition above relate to the teaching English using an ESP approach?

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES OF ESP
Phase I (1960s – 1970s) Extensive analyses of lexical and grammatical features of academic
and professional register.
Phase II (1970s – early 1980s) Analysis of organization and functions of entire discourse (spoken or
written) at a number of levels.
Phase III Systematic analyses of target situation: Communication purpose of speaking The setting for the language use Mode of communication
Phase IV Analyses of strategies (learning situation) to acquire the target
language.

Three problems may arise when dealing with the ESP teachers:
The lack of an orthodoxy to provide a ready-made guide
What authentic materials are
No clear guidelines

Three problems … (cont.)
The new realms of knowledge the ESP teacher has to know Does the content of ESP materials need to be
highly specialized?
Why do so many teachers find it difficult to comprehend ESP subject matter? Separation between Humanities and Science in
education
Tendency to teach easier materials or subjects
Little effort to retrain teachers
Too much expectation

Three problems … (cont.)
What kinds of knowledge are required by the ESP teachers?
Positive attitude toward the ESP content
Knowledge of fundamental principles of the subject matter
Awareness of how much they have probably already known
