By the completion of the course the student will be able to :

·         Describe the historical development of cognitive psychology.

The course presents English for Specific Purposes (ESP) as an approach to English language teaching with its development and current state. Third-year students will learn different notions related to ESP and how it is different from teaching English for General Purposes (EGP). Furthermore, students will discuss, rationalize, then practice the process of ESP course design in order to be ready for any occupational opportunities that may arise after they graduate. Thus, be able to teach ESP classes more efficiently.
