  • In rapidly changing society when teaching English for Specific Purposes has grown to become one of the most prominent areas of teaching English as a foreign language, ESP practitioners face new opportunities and challenges. The purpose of the article is to reveal new approaches to methods of teaching of English. The article uses a case study approach to help students feel the necessity of developing their professional skills, and so have their teachers, who now realize that the design of any curriculum has to be student-centred. It has to be determined primarily by the long-term needs of the students. Its goal has to be professional competence. Students graduating from the university have to be ready to go on to the next stage in their lives, join the work force and function effectively in English. Since they are going to be managers, business people, executives and so on, they will need to use English effectively in their business transactions. They must absorb information quickly, read selectively, and make decisions under pressure. This article underlines specific needs of the learners to make use of methodology and activities of the discipline in order to be centered on the language appropriate to these activities. Thus, team - teaching is the great opportunity for both the subject specialist and the English tutor to create together. As a result of studying the problem, we can come to the conclusion that it is necessary to continue the methodological investigation undertaken here in terms of verifying the experience described and possibly transferring it to other directions. The article can be useful for further study of that approach and for specialists and teachers, because it helps to use and develop it in a proper way.
