On Teaching Tourist English

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is a profitable niche in the ever expanding EFL field.

Some students do not have the time to invest in a protracted program of classes, but yet have a functional need to immediately use English in their work duties.

Enter ESP!

A rudimentary ESP program begins with a strong base (or should) of the English language mixed with the specific English phrases, vocabulary, and conversational experience to arm the student with the basics to function in their job role. The joy and pleasure of reading of Shakespeare is sacrificed for the immediate no nonsense approach to mastering a bit of the English language in the smallest amount of time possible (Survival English).

The tourist industry is vast from hotels to the ticket takers at an amusement park. Professionals across the spectrum can use English to interact better with their clients or more importantly advance to a better paying position.

Professor Winn is available to teach Specific Tourist English for whatever sector of the industry. Survival English can be taught during a weekend.

Advance in your industry today and contact Professor Winn to help you!
