Summary/Abstract: This study presents research in embedding language learning strategies and language using strategies in an ESP course designed for engineering tertiary education, whose focus is on the transferability and generalizability of the approach. An enlarged sample of students was created by including a second teacher in the experimental research, who was thoroughly instructed on how to teach the experimental module, as one hypothesis was to check to what extent transfer of the proposed instructional construct was feasible. The findings analysis shows there are good chances of transferring the approach, with necessary amendments, towards other teachers and/or educational contexts
