Abstract: The teaching of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has generally been seen as a distinct activity within English Language Teaching. The teaching of ESP has developed its own methodology based on research in various disciplines. ESP teaching involves both specific disciplinary knowledge and English Language knowledge. A specific discipline has its own nature and linguistic features. In an age of disciplines diversified and knowledge updated unprecedentedly, it is almost impossible for ESP teachers to have specialized knowledge in different academic fields. The paper presents the concept of the collaboration of subject teachers and English teachers, introducing two modes of collaboration on course books and team teaching to explore the efficient methods of teaching ESP. The collaborative modes are applied to practical teaching and adjusted from a pragmatic perspective, illustrating the modes of collaboration between subject teachers and English teachers.
Keywords: team teaching; ESP (English for Specific Purposes); collaboration.
