ESP IS A SUBDIVISION OF A WIDER FIELD,
LANGUAGE FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES:
“…THE AREA OF INQUIRY AND PRACTICE IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF LANGUAGE PROGRAMS FOR
PEOPLE WHO NEED A LANGUAGE TO MEET A
PREDICTABLE RANGE OF COMMUNICATIVE
NEEDS.” SWALES,1992
English for Specific Purposes (ESP) more
concentrates on language in context than on
teaching grammar and language structures.
(Hans and Hans, 2015)
English for specific purposes (ESP) refers to
the teaching and learning of English as a
second or foreign language where the goal
of the learners is to use English in a
particular domain (Fitria, 2019)
