Abstract
The growth in tourism industry has created the need for
students and professionals to master English for occupational
purposes. English is a compulsory subject at Tourism
Department, Airlangga University. However, the teaching
materials are too old. Besides, the curriculum and syllabus are
not available that make teachers use their own materials and
sometimes the same materials are often given repeatedly by
different teachers. There are also complaints from the students.
The objecives of this research is to find necessary
topics relevant to prospective graduate’s job which can be
found from the existing materials and also by asking the alumni
about topics needed which are not present in the existing
materials. Based on the findings, the proposed syllabus for the
subject English for Tourism 1 is developed as well as the
example material based on the proposed syllabus.
In order to find the necessary topics for prospectives
graduates, questionnaires were distributed with random
sampling method to 600 alumni in which only 100 of them
responded. Based on the result of the questionnaire, out of 25
topics in the existing materials, 10 topics were chosen and used
in the proposed syllabus. After the syllabus was developed, the
sample material was developed.
Keywords: ESP, syllabus design, materials development
