II CHAPTER. The role of teachers in ESP lessons
2.3.Tasks and objectives of ESP Teachers
In addition to the roles played by ESP teachers, they are concerned with some tasks that help them to achieve their objectives which consist mainly of increasing the spoken and the written competence of ESP learners by concentrating on the four skills, the acquisition of linguistics and cultural information of the learners’ fields and to create a positive attitude in them toward the English language. The tasks include developing curriculum, designing ESP courses, analyzing the learners’ needs and assessing their improvements. In order to clarify the entire notions and concepts mentioned in the literature review part, at the end of this section, we will describe briefly our practical case in accordance with the previous sections.

Developing Curriculum


Basturkmen (2010: 53) stated that ESP courses can be developed for groups of learners with very similar needs or with only somewhat similar needs. Some ESP courses are developed for disciplines or occupations as broad fields and some for specialties within them. Therefore ESP teacher must distinguish between courses that are “wide angled” (designed for a more general group of learners) and those that are “narrow angled” (designed for a very specific group of learners). For example courses titled EGAP and Business English can be considered ‘wide angled’ since they are designed for classes focused on broad academic skills or a register (Business English) which encompasses many subfields including marketing, accounting and management. Whereas courses titled English for Nursing Studies and English for Accountants can be considered relatively ‘narrow angled’ since they refer to courses that are more specific, as they have been designed for learners we might assume have largely homogeneous needs and who have a particular type of academic or work environment in mind.
Basturkmen (2010: 55) suggests that the terms ‘wide- and narrow-angled’ course designs might follow a two-way divide. However, courses can be more or less narrow or wide and can be seen as existing on a continuum of specificity. At one end of this continuum are the most general ESP courses, courses that focus on a register, such as Business English or Academic English and courses that focus on a generic set of skills in an area, such as Business English
Skills or EGAP. Towards the other end of the continuum are courses focusing on specific needs and language use of a particular area of work or study, for example, English for Accountants (and the narrower option, English for Financial Accountants), or English for Social Science Studies (and the narrower option, English for Sociology Studies). Some ESP courses are devised for a very specific group of learners, for instance, English for Auditors (auditing is a branch of financial accounting) and an even narrower option, a course organized at the behest of a particular workplace or division within a workplace, for example, a course for the financial accountants in the auditing division of a particular accountancy firm. See the representation of courses that range from low to high specificity shown in the next figure:
