EFL Teachers’ beliefs and Challenges About ESP Teaching

Abstract

This paper focuses on EFL teachers’ approaches of the pedagogy of ESP teaching, challenges, and needs of ESP teaching in Tunisia. A semi-structured interview was distributed to 20 EFL university Tunisian teachers. The results showed that Tunisian university teachers had a limited understanding of ESP concepts, and they consider it as a challenging task. Moreover, the results strongly suggest more professional training in ESP teaching.
