presentation on ESP course deign for teachers time period 3 months

3. "English for specific purposes is a term that refers
to teaching or studying English for a particular
career (like law, medicine) or for business in
general." (International Teacher Training
Organization, 2005).
ESP involves teaching and learning the specific skills
and language needed by particular learners for a
particular purpose.
An ESP program is therefore built on an assessment
of purposes and needs and the functions for which
English is required

6. The most important EGP
features are:
1. The focus is often on
education;
2. As the learners’ future
needs are impossible to
predict, the course content
is more difficult to select;
3. Due to the above point
it is important for the
content in the syllabus to
have a high surrender
value.
The most relevant ESP
features are:
1. The focus is on training;
2. As English is intended to be
used in specific vocational
contexts, the selection of the
appropriate content is easier;
3. It is important for the content
in the syllabus to have a high
surrender value, most relevant
to the vocational context;
4. The aim may be to create a
restricted English competence

11. • The study has been conducted only on the teachers of
Elementary level of government schools of Rawalpindi and
Islamabad;
• It analyzes the needs of the learners by taking into consideration
their present situations.
• The study cannot be used to interpret the teachers on the
whole, because their needs can vary according to their situation.
• Course design can subject to various changes with difference
other than government elementary schools.

12. Needs analysis ‘provides a basis for setting goals and objectives’ (Nunan and Lamb 1996: 27).
Need is basically a gap between the present situation and the target situation.

13.  Necessity: These needs are determined by the demands of the target
situation. It means what the learner has to know in order to function
effectively in the target situation.
 Lack: It is required to know what the learner knows already, so that it can
be decided then which of the necessities the learners lack.
 c. Wants: Hutchinson and Waters’ (1987) definition of wants (perceived or
subjective needs of learners) corresponds to learning needs.

14. Learning Needs

15. A course for the teachers of Elementary level has been designed by
taking into account the learner's interest, how, what, why, when and
where they want to learn. This range of acquaintance is important to
design a significant course for the learners.

16. Questionnaires
Formal
interviews

Present Situation Analysis

30.  In the light of the open ended questions that were provided to them, we have
analysed that majority of the people found English speaking and has issues with
Basic Grammar
 . While discussion we analysed that they even preferred to speak Urdu. As a teacher
the main demand of their job was to be fluent in speaking English.
 They also found obstacles in using English grammar. They had insufficient
vocabulary or if they had they didn’t know the appropriate use of that vocabulary. Due
to the lack of vocabulary, it was difficult for them to express their thoughts.
 When they were asked about their demands for the ESP course, they said that the
grammar should be focused in the course. They also wanted to improve their
vocabulary and desired some exercise should be added to improve their vocabulary.
They also wanted to improve their communicative skills as well as expression.
