This presentation starts from a strong need to understand ESP instructional model that can develop students’ English competence as well as their content knowledge for their future field of career required them to have. While there are much research on ESP education, there is a lack of attention on how actual classroom teaching is conducted and how an ESP instructional model is discrete from general English programs. Some ESP courses introduced special pedagogical techniques, however, many activities or instructional moves do not seem to reflect ESP-specific approach. Therefore, this presentation introduces one class engagement that the presenter actually taught to develop students’ tourism knowledge and English skills that are filed-specific. This presentation will discuss an ESP instructional model that can help both students’ professional content knowledge as well as their purpose-specific English communication skills.
