PART I INTRODUCTION

A. THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH Jobs: Most of the businesses engaged in dealing with international clients and suppliers prefer using English as the primary source of communication. While people have their own native languages, English serves as the most common and user-friendly language to interpret, translate and communicate with English-speaking customers and professionals. Hence, to make the best out of the available opportunities, one has to be highly fluent in English

Travel: Languages differ from country to country and from region to region. Thus, if you happen to travel to another country, either for business or leisure purpose, you are sure to land yourself into great trouble, in case you are not conversant with the native language. In such circumstances, English comes to your rescue as it is a global language spoken by more than 900 million people across the globe, either as native language or second language. Familiarity to English can get you to communicate with anyone and everyone where you travel, thereby easily handling the situation.

Education: People not only travel to places worldwide for business and pleasure, but they leave their homeland and travel to another country for study purpose as well. Travel to any country on this earth and you would find English as the main medium of teaching, as it is practically impossible for a new person to study in the local language of the country, in particular. Hence, education has, by far, increased the importance of English to a great extent.

B. ESP APPROACH IN SYLLABUS DESIGN English for specific purposes is a particular case of the general category of special-purpose language teaching. The same principles apply no matter which language is being learned and taught. French for specific purposes, Russian for specific purposes, Chinese for specific purposes - all of the exist and are constructed on the same basis as English for specific purposes. The vastly greater demand for English makes ESP more common than FSP, RSP, or CSP, but the principles are the same. Absolute characteristic of ESP are designed to meet specified needs of the learner; related in content (themes and topics) to particular disciplines, occupations and activities; centered on the language appropriate to those activities, in syntax, lexis, discourse, semantics, etc; in contrast with General English. Variable characteristic of ESP may be, but is not necessarily are restricted as to the language skills to be learned (e.g. reading only; speech recognition only; etc); taught according to any pre-ordained methodology (i.e. ESP is not restricted to any particular methodology although communicative methodology is very often felt to be the most appropriate). In the principles of syllabus design, to which must be linked the choice of most suitable methodology. The earliest syllabus principles were linguistic and structural, in the sense used in the British ELT: the syllabus consisted chiefly of an ordered list of the language items to be taught, often referred to as the structures of English. Next came the development, within the American tradition, of structuralism linguistics, and the extension of this into foreign language teaching, notably in the Michigan materials for EFL, where the teaching items were not the rather ill-defined structures of English but were the out come of descriptive linguistic applied to English. (it is often forgotten how very different were structuralism syllabus in the mould of Trager, Fries, and Marckwardt from the earlier structural syllabus in the tradition of Palmer, west and Hornby; both were linguistic syllabus, but in the British sense linguistic meant composed of language items whereas in the American sense it meant derived from theoretical linguistics.)

Once linguistic syllabuses were universally adopted a great deal of emphasis was placed on vocabulary, on establishing lists of the most-frequent and most-useful words, and on grouping them together for more effective teaching and learning. This is where situational principle came in syllabus began to make use of situations, originally as an aid to the learning of vocabulary items, then as a contribution to authenticity; in addition, situations were found to be a great help in creating more attractive and effective methodologies, by injecting interest and variety into the teaching. Most recently in this chain of development to concepts of notions and functions have been added to the linguistic and situational principles of syllabus design, and these in turn have seemed most frequently (thought not always) to be best associated with a communicative methodology. This is the context within which ESP has evolved. In order to design a course for the specific purposes of particular learners the teachers can make use of linguistic, situational, notional, and functional principles when devising a syllabus, and they can employ any of a wide range of the teaching methods, probably including communicative techniques.

C. ANALYSIS OF AUTHENTIC TEXTS Analyzing of authentic texts is a crucial stage of need analysis. The text can be written documents or audio and video recordings of events such as lectures, meetings, telephone interactions, classroom activities. The logistics of obtaining spoken data for needs analysis mean that it is less accessible than written documents, as with observation, confidentiality is an important issue; people may wish to white-out information such as figures and company names. The analysis may be for TSA purposes, to determine the key linguistic features of a communicative event or genre that is new to us. Alternatively, the texts may be samples of participants language and help us to carry out a PSA. Authentic texts are invaluable for learning about real and carrier content. They can also form the basis of classroom materials, with three provisos: the client/source has

given permission; fictitious facts replace confidential ones; and anything which can directly identify the author is removed. For evaluation, the texts learners produce in class can be looked at to evaluate progress towards the objectives and to identify needs that have not yet been met.
