to carry out all types of speech activities in the field of professional communication in English. These
materials are implemented for teaching ESP to first-year master students of Tashkent State University
of Applied Sciences.
The purpose of the study involves the solution of the following tasks:
1. To study the theoretical aspects of the organization of successful ESP-learning for students in the
process of teaching English at a university.
2. Select professionally-oriented materials, develop special tasks and offer to use the selected materials
as an integral part (section) of the ESP training program for undergraduates of the university.
The purpose of this activity is the development of students' speech skills in all types of speech activity
(reading, writing, listening, speech) in the field of professional communication.
MATERIALS AND METHODS OF THE RESEARCH
The set goals and objectives of the study made it possible to determine the use of the following methods
for their solution: theoretical analysis of the concepts and essence of the topic under study, the study of
scientific publications on this issue, the method of conversation, the method of pedagogical observation,
survey, questioning.
It is interesting and important to consider the essence of the concept of ESP-learning, as well as to study
the positions of the authors on this topic.
The purpose of ESP-learning is to form, develop and improve the speech skills of students in all types
of speech activity (reading, writing, listening, speaking) in the field of professional communication. ESP
learning is concerned with analyzing learners' needs and preparing them to communicate effectively in
areas prescribed by their major of study or potential work situation. The basis of ESP-learning is usually
lexical and grammatical content / content, which has a certain specificity, characteristic of a particular
specialty of students. ESP is not just a language course/general English course, ESP is English (specific)
language training for a particular profession. A specific language is a general English language that
includes the terminology of a specific professional area. ESP in terms of technical education can be
considered as a connection between two different areas: the technical area and the language area (i.e.
a set of lexico-grammatical norms and rules for communicating in English in this technical area). ESP
students, like General English students, must master all four language skills: reading, speaking, listening
and writing. Therefore, the ESP course program is more complex than the general English course
program, since it is aimed at the simultaneous assimilation by students of general (basic) language
knowledge, skills and terminology of the specialty with the aim of subsequent communication in the
professional field.
The goal of any student taking an ESP course is to achieve an understanding of a technical text and
acquire professional communication skills in English. A technical text, like any specific text, requires a
complete understanding, since such texts are usually characterized by a high semantic density. A
complete understanding requires students to have a good command of English and a thorough
knowledge of the technical field being studied. Sometimes students who rely on their knowledge of the
subject think they can guess the meaning of the English technical text being studied. However, any
unpredictable new meaning or idea can have a variety of grammatical forms in sentences. Therefore, in
the process of teaching students to work with English technical texts, the teacher needs to explain the
use of terminology and the grammatical composition of each sentence, which ensures a complete
perception of the sentence, its correct translation into Russian and Uzbek, and therefore understanding.
Thus, the key goal of ESP-learning is to develop students' skills to combine a thorough knowledge of
