Abstract

The present paper is intended to approach the basic function of language learning, the communicational aspect, from the perspective of its practical usage in professional contexts. Teaching English as a foreign language at a university level goes beyond the acquisition, reinforcement and practice of the traditional language skills. Consequently, language instructors are required to adjust course materials, teaching objectives and didactic strategies in order to address the students’ adequate English language speaking abilities. The finality of these language acquisitions consists of equipping students with proper communicational tools which should allow them to be competitive agents on both the Romanian labor market and abroad. The study reflects the authors’ practice in the field of teaching English for Specific Purposes and provides examples of communicational models with an application in professional environments.
