How to make English for students of chemistry more fun.  Tips for teachers of ESP

Abstract

The last several years have seen a growing interest in teaching English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in Poland. There is a vast array of textbooks and reading materials for ESP courses, yet most of them deal with business and management, law, economy etc., while there is still a shortage of ready-to-use materials concerning such fields as, for example, chemistry. Moreover, the available coursebooks often present the material in a schematic way; they seem to lack stimulating texts and motivating practice activities.
