Abstract

The present article deals with a practical analysis of the main steps that a course designer or a teacher could follow when designing an ESP course for a particular group of current / would-be specialists. As the main purpose of such a course is to meet the requirements of the target learners, the paper takes into account three main stages that need not be neglected when designing an ESP course, namely setting the objectives of the course based on needs analysis, choosing the appropriate teaching theory and selecting the appropriate materials (which could be done through evaluation, development or adaptation).
