Abstract

In recent years, the quality of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) programs in vocational secondary schools has been emphasized to improve the English language proficiency of graduates. This study aims to develop an understanding of the English language needs and challenges of the hospitality vocational school program. This examines their perspectives on ESP learning and whether it reflects different English language needs and challenges. A qualitative case study, using data from teachers, students, and hotel practitioners was employed. All practitioners who work in large-scale hotels with international service standards are occupied to enrich English needs related to the hotel industry. The results show that students need effective communication skills related to situational conversations at hotels. They are expected to be professional: either in terms of English material or language skills regarding their particular needs in hotel services. However, both students and teachers felt that their ESP material had not yet addressed the language skills needed in the hospitality industry. Students experienced limitations in vocabulary, language structures as well as pronunciation related to English for hotels. These findings are ultimately expected to provide recommendations for hospitality program stakeholders to accommodate the needs of ESP students and assume teaching methodologies to address these challenges.

Abstract

Understanding listening materials is perceived as the most challenging aspect of language learning by many EFL University students. They face difficulties in recognizing English words, phrases, pronunciation, vocabulary, and sentence complexity, compounded by the rapid speech rate of native speakers. Addressing these challenges, this study explores the use of digital materials that require students to analyse, evaluate and make informed judgments based on listening content, thereby nurturing higher order thinking skills. A qualitative case study was conducted, involving the collection of comprehensive data from course syllabi, lecturers and students. A total of sixty-one university students enrolled intermediate listening course, along with two listening lecturers, were actively engaged to enrich the data. The results shows that the use of digital materials, particularly the e-module, has proven to be effective. Students’ responses indicate that the e-module effectively facilitates critical thinking, improves reflective ability, and encourages motivation. Moreover, the e-module features, including well-defined learning outcomes, authentic materials, scaffolded learning activities, engaging multimedia elements, collaborative features, and opportunities for reflection and self-assessment, collectively contribute to foster critical thinking skills and motivation among students.
