ESP vs EGP
Though ESP is based on the needs of the learner, uses a specific methodology and is
considered with the teaching grammar, the language skills, and the like, it is distinguished
from English for General Purposes (EGP) in many points.

ESP is different from EGP. First, since, in most cases, ESP learners are adult learners,
they bring with them their prior experience which integrates, but complements the use of
English.

Second, ESP courses are based on a needs analysis of the learners since, as mentioned
earlier, adult learners are aware of the purposes of taking a course.


Third, ESP courses may focus on one or a few aspects of langnage, say, grammar,
reading skill, etc., whereas EGP deals with all of them' orammar focahnlary, phonology,
and the four language skills.

Fourth, ESP teaching courses are limited to a short period of time rather than EGP
ones which last a number of years (seven years in Algerian schools, from the middle
school up to the secondary school).

Fifth, The specific contexts in which English is taught imply a specialised vocabulary
as in Accounting, Computer Science, Biology, and the like, resulting in many genres and
registers. In fact, English is taught in contexts known by the learners. That is, it is
embedded in their subject area, which facilitates the use of what they learn in their studies
or work.
