In the context of Brazilian public education, the implementation of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in English as a Lingua Franca (EFL) classrooms requires careful consideration of learners” profiles, institutional objectives, and available resources. According to Hutchinson and Waters (1987) and Dudley-Evans and St John (1998), what is the theoretical foundations and practical implications of ESP for classroom application?
Courses should follow a fixed curriculum with general English content, ensuring that learners are exposed to broad linguistic knowledge before addressing specific contexts.
The primary goal is to reduce the role of needs analysis in curriculum design, focusing instead on universal communicative competences across all professional areas.
It is fundamentally learner-centered and context-sensitive, emphasizing needs analysis, authentic materials, and genre awareness to meet specific communicative demands.
Linguistic simplicity takes precedence over discourse authenticity, especially when dealing with lower proficiency learners in technical fields.
Instruction should prioritize standardized testing formats to ensure that learners can perform well on general language proficiency assessments regardless of their field.
