Summary/Abstract: In a broad sense, ESP can be defined as the teaching of English to foreign or second language learners that aims to address the students’ specific needs related to a particular job, activity or purpose. Writing in ESP. would consequently focus not only on the elements that help improve the learners’ ability to write in a foreign language, in a general sense (with reference to the concepts of cohesion and coherence that ensure the texture of a piece of writing), but also, in a more restrictive sense, on a genre-specific analysis that gives students the opportunity to gain some experience in approaching those written genres that are relevant for their field of interest.
