A brief Introduction of the Training Course Issue

The crucial problem encountered in teaching English for Specific Purposes is first in the misconception of the term ESP and second in the application of the ESP course. Indeed, what was observed, at the department of computing, is what we studied theoretically about ESP teaching is not put into application by ESP teachers who teach ESP in other departments. We can note that there is not a separation between ESP and English for General Purposes (EGP) when it comes to syllabuses and methodology. English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and English for General Purposes (EGP) are considered to be one by the majority of teachers. In fact, what is taught in the general education or private institutions is typically English for general purposes and to some extent what is taught now in our universities under the term ESP is typical general English. Furthermore, needs analysis, which is a major component of ESP, rarely exists, and, if does, it is not systematic because it is only based on teachers’ intuitions. Moreover, the methodology adopted in teaching in the majority of cases is uniform. That is, a teacher would enter a class with the same kind of methodology in mind regardless of the aims of each program. Unfortunately, ESP courses in different departments are always put “in the same basket” and labeled as programs for “Teaching English”. As a matter of fact, there are crucial parameters that ought to be taken into consideration when designing syllabuses such as the nature of language to be taught and used, the learners, the setting and the objectives to be realized.
