Teaching English using an ESP approach seems preferable in current ELT due to its efficiency and effectiveness in imparting learning. However, designing ELT using the ESP approach is not an easy job. The conflicts often happen after collecting data of needs – necessities, lacks in terms of starting points and the gap between the level of English and the target needs. This article deals with the problems in designing the teaching of English using an ESP approach at higher education in Indonesia in terms of the necessities, lacks, wants, gaps of necessities and level of English. The data are collected from 313 students from Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Education and Faculty of Economics the University of Mataram using triangulation techniques --- test, questionnaire, interview, FGD, and documentary and then analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. From the analysis, it is concluded that conflicts among needs in designing teaching English using an ESP approach at the University of Mataram, caused by big gaps between the necessities and students’ lacks (current level of English). The situation becomes even worse because of the limited number of credits, the number of students in a class and some other factors.

The ultimate goal of teaching “MKDK” English at non-English departments is to prepare students to be able to understand textbooks written in English on their own field. To be able to do this, students must have various reading skills such as note-taking, evaluating, memorizing (retaining) information, summarizing, and other reading skills needed in academic contexts. The teaching and leaning process should, therefore, be directed to the proficiency of such skills. Through English subject the students are expected to be able to improve “learning how-to-learn” skills. It is necessary, then, to review the current practices of teaching reading at non-English departments. Have the materials and classroom activities represented the expectation of reading in academic contexts? Have the materials and classroom activities managed to improve students’ language skills and impart learning how-to-learn skills? This paper provides suggestion to redesign/re-orientate the materials and class activities to achieve both improvement of language skills and skills in learning-how-to-learn.

Key words: teaching reading, academic reading, learning how-to-learn

For students of Tourism Department, the target needs of leaning English have been well-defined since they have had definite job markets. Thus, in designing curriculum for this target audience, these target needs must further be translated into descriptions of competencies needed in the tourism area so that the students are capable of performing the language needed in the target situation. This article will bring about the application of competency-based approach in designing second language syllabus/curriculum. There are two points to be discussed: (1) general descriptions of competency-based approach in designing second/foreign language curriculum; and (2) a proposal in establishing English competencies in ESP contexts with reference to English competencies needed by students of Tourism Department (University of Mataram)
